Trust Accounting Q&A: Tracking TAS Automatic Payments

July 2020    Tags: Payments, Statements, Tabs3 Billing, Trust Accounting

We have TAS and Tabs3 Billing integrated so that automatic payments are created in TAS when statements are generated. However, the tcode used is the same as the payments that we make directly into Tabs3 Billing. Can we use a different tcode for these automatic payments from TAS?

The tcode used for automatic trust payments can be changed. You can use a tcode that’s already set up, or create a new tcode to use.

To create a new tcode in Tabs3 Billing

1. From the Tabs3 Billing File menu, point to Open and select Miscellaneous.
2. From the Tcode tab, press Ctrl+N.
3. Enter the desired Alpha Code.
4. In the Type field, select 1 – Regular Payment.
5. Enter the desired Description (e.g., “Trust Payment”).
6. Press Ctrl+S.

To assign a different tcode for automatic trust payments in TAS

2. From the Bank Account tab, select the Bank Account you want to edit.
3. Click the Integration Settings button.
   1. From the Tabs3 Integration Settings window, in the Tabs3 Transaction Codes for Payments section, select the desired Regular Payment tcode.
   2. Click OK.
4. Press Ctrl+S.
