BACS user reference |
Holds the direct debit reference number issued by the bank. When a user takes a BACS payment from a customer, a specific reference must be submitted to the bank. Entering a specific user reference on a Sales Ledger account ensures the transactions from this account are easily identifiable upon export from BACS. Type in the required user reference. If a user reference does not exist for an account, the user reference field within BACS items uses the default. |
