Did you know Dynamics 365 Business Central has a small collections module built right into the solution that allows you to send reminders to customers that are past due?
Scenario
Below is a list of customers in Business Central and their past due balances. Follow along below to see how to setup reminder terms and reminder levels then process reminders that are emailed directly to your customers. In order to email from Business Central you do need to have the SMTP Setup completed as well.
Setup
1. Reminder Terms & Reminder Levels
a. Lookup "Reminder Terms"
b. Enter in information pertaining to how you'd like your reminder terms setup.
c. With the first reminder terms code selected click on Levels on the menu and enter the information pertaining to how you'd like your reminder levels setup.
3. Customer Card > Payments > Reminder Terms Code
a. Within the customer card > payments section populate the Reminder Terms Code field.
Issue Reminders
1. Reminders
a. Lookup "Reminders" From the reminders window you have two options, you can create reminders at a mass level or one by one. I have chosen to do this at a mass level.
b. Select Process > Create Reminders

Issued Reminders
You can also view all issued reminders that have been processed by looking up the Issued Reminders page. From here you can email or print the reminders as well.

Being able to purchase completely blank check stock for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (BC) is a plus, however you'll have to know how to configure the system so the MICR line prints on the check stock. Microsoft added the MICR checks functionality in early 2020 and using it can be a challenge to use if you're not familiar with modifying layouts in BC. I'll walk you through the process of being able to use this functionality. I will be showing you how to do this within my Production environment test company. I will then show you how to update your production company once you've completed your configuration and modified the check layout. You should also test within a test company and test with your bank prior to updating in production company. If you're only modifying check layout and not using MICR line then you should be ok not testing with your bank first.

Since my dimensions were missing the Dimension Value Code field is blank,
