Example

The department of Arboretum Administration at Kuali University offers surplus plants to the general public following research activities. Customers include local nurseries, individuals, and municipalities.

The Payment Application document tells KFS how to apply a payment (for example, apply all funds to dogwood trees, to a mix of dogwoods and arborvitae, etc.) on an existing invoice. When customer DCH's check goes into the Kuali University's cashiering office, the Dean's Office completes a Cash Control document (which references the just completed cash receipts document) to make the Accounts Receivable module aware of the funds. After the user clicks this link under Application eDoc #, KFS opens a Payment Application document so payment application instructions may be given to KFS.
