Display payee name for customer and vendor payment information

Introduction

This Display payee name for customer/vendor payment information feature is available in 10.0.46 version.

This feature enables the system to retrieve and display the Payee Name from the vendor or customer bank account details. The Payee Name will appear in vendor and customer payment journals, payment proposals, and payment files. Since the Payee Name can be different from the vendor or customer name in the master data, it helps ensure that payments are processed using the correct bank account holder name.

By introducing the Payee Name field, the system improves payment accuracy by ensuring the correct beneficiary name is included in journals, proposals, and bank files, which helps reduce payment errors and bank rejections
