You can use the Submit Lockbox Processing window to import bank files that are in the Japanese Zengin format. Unlike some bank files, you cannot select import, validate, and post Zengin files in a single step. You need to import the data, match and confirm receipts with customers in the Lockbox Transmission Data window, and then return to the Submit Lockbox Processing window to validate and post the records. Receivables provides a sample control file called arzeng.ctl you can use to import bank files in the Zengin format. See: Transmission Formats.
When you match Zengin receipts with customer information, Receivables updates the Alternate Names table so it can automatically match receipts for these customers the next time you run AutoLockbox. The Alternate Name Matches window lets you remove this information from the Alternate Names table if, for example, this information is no longer valid.
Deleting information in this window only removes the record from the Alternate Names table; it does not delete the customer's name, number, or any other information from Receivables.
Note: The records in the Alternate Names table are not the same as the Alternate Name you can assign to a customer using the Customers window. The records in the Alternate Names table originate from the bank file you imported using AutoLockbox, and are simply alternative customer names often used by Japanese businesses.
