Issuing Payments and Liabilities

In a non integrated environment, payments and liabilities due for active cases are automatically issued when the Financial Batch Suite is run. For more information, please refer to the Cúram Financials Guide.

In an integrated financial environment, a different sequence of batch processes are required to issue a payment or liability. The Determine Product Delivery Eligibility batch process is run first to generate financial components. Then, the Generate Instruction Line Items batch process is run to generate instruction line items. Following this, the Transfer Instruction Line Items batch process is run to copy the financial instruction line items from the application to the integrated ERP financial system for further processing.

When the ERP system has consolidated the instruction line items into payments or liabilities as appropriate, a document state message is returned to the application for each instruction line item processed. Each message contains information on the current state of the instruction line item in the ERP system. The following information is included:

• External ID - the cross system ID, used to uniquely identify this instruction line item across all systems.
• Status - the current status of the instruction line item in the ERP financial system.
• Unprocessed Amount - the remaining balance on this instruction line item.
• Payment Document ID - the identifier of the payment which contains this payment instruction line item.
• Invoice Document ID - the identifier of the invoice which contains this liability instruction line item.
