Using Credit Card as a Payment Method.

SUGGESTED

Has anyone set up a credit card account as a bank to use when you are paying your supplier invoices with a credit card?  The g/l account would be the credit card liability instead of cash.

When we pay our suppliers by credit card, we want the invoice to be on the Supplier for the history and to use credit card as a payment method. Would we need to set the credit card up as a bank to do this?

Thank you.

    Hi Cindy

    Yes, this is exactly how I have handled this. You create a payment term with the payment method of credit card, associate that payment method with the vendors.  Create a credit card bank, then run a payment proposal to "pay" the vendors with that payment method with your credit card bank.  This moves the liability to the credit card bank and the supplier invoices are paid.  When you get the invoice from the credit card company, you can compare the detail to what is in the credit card bank, and then enter the payable to pay the credit card against the credit card bank, moving the liability to your regular AP account.

    Deb,

    Thank you very much for your assistance.  That made sense to me, but during our implementation I have been surprised too many times about what made sense and didn't work in X3 for me to make any more assumptions.

    Thanks again for your answer.
