      <Paragraph>In a multicompany structure, ERP Enterprise prints receipt
		acknowledgements in the financial company in which you register the payment. ERP Enterprise uses the Relation
		Intercompany Documents (tfgld112) table to find the related invoices in other
		financial companies of the company group.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>To avoid performance problems, the financial companies of the
		company group can share the Receipt Acknowledgements (tfcmg200) table. If you
		run the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tf/acr/tfacr2260m000" role="session">Archive / Delete Fully Paid Sales Invoices (tfacr2260m000)</GUIRef> session, ERP Enterprise also deletes all
		the receipt acknowledgements related to the deleted invoices. If the financial
		companies of the company group do not share the Receipt Acknowledgements
		(tfcmg200) table, ERP Enterprise must process the receipt acknowledgements in each individual company.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>If the financial companies of the company group share the
		Receipt Acknowledgements (tfcmg200) table, you must create the number group and
		series for receipt acknowledgement in the group company. The financial
		companies must all use the same number group and each company must use its own,
		unique, series for the receipt acknowledgement.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>ERP Enterprise prints receipt acknowledgements for business partners, for which you select the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tc/com/tccom4114s000#tccom114.prra" role="manual">Print Receipt Acknowledgement</GUIRef> check box in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tc/com/tccom4114s000" role="session">Pay-by Business Partner (tccom4114s000)</GUIRef> session. If you define the business partner
		details by department, ERP Enterprise checks the details defined for a business partner department that
		is equal to the accounting department of the financial company.</Paragraph>
