Failed Bills

Error Message

Reason(s)

Solution

Vendor Bills remain in the Pay Bills screen after being paid. No failure message is displayed under the Failed Bills tab.

Locked Accounting Periods.

The plugin is respectful of Vendor Bills that are associated with Locked Accounting Periods prior to the installation of the Commerce Bank bundle. Navigate to Setup > Accounting > Manage Accounting Periods. Click on the closed period. Next, click on the "Allow Non G/L changes" checkbox and save your changes. This keeps the period closed while also allowing the plugin to execute a payment against the bill. Vendor Bills that are associated with an Accounting Period that is locked after the plugin has been installed, will not be impacted.

Attempting to pay a Vendor outside of United States using ACH.

Update the address on the Vendor record and the Vendor Bill to a US address, or use an alternate payment method.

Discrepancy between Bill form and Bill Payment form.

Ensure that the mandatory fields for both the Vendor Bill form and the Bill Payment form match, or remove these mandatory fields entirely. Click customize on each of the forms in the top right corner and ensure the fields under Screen Fields and Sublist Fields match for Department and Class.

Invoice Ids/Reference No. are longer than allowed length of 35 characters

Reference No. on the Vendor Bill you’re trying to pay exceeds the amount of characters supported by Commerce Bank

To avoid truncating important payment information from the Vendor Bill, the plugin will fail payments in the Reference No. exceeds the amount of characters supported. Update the Reference No. on the Vendor Bill to be 35 characters or less (including spaces).
