Selecting a Provider

The 'Payee Details' portion of the screen allows for selection of who the payment is to be made to.

This initially defaults to 'P'rovider, as this is the payee who is most commonly paid in 'CCI'.  Despite this, the specific provider to be paid must be selected.  To do so, use the F4 facility.

Other choices for payment are:

EEmployee (used for receipts);

OOther ('one off' payments, where the provider of the service is not listed on the Service Provider table - such as ad hoc household services payment);

CComcare Trust Account (holding money on behalf of the dependant of a deceased employee, and have made a purchase for the dependant);

DDependant (rarely used, but relating to receipts dependants of deceased employees submit for payment); and

TTrustee (again rarely used, where a trustee has made a purchase on behalf of the dependant of a deceased employee).

In all cases, with the exception of 'O', a record of name and address will already be on PRACSYS, so selection of these payee types will automatically insert the correct payee name and address.

'O'ther, being a 'one off' payee, will not have name and address details, so these will need to be added to the screen.
