Overview
Use this job aid to apply grain from storage and produce a settlement. This job aid is used to move delivery sheet applications from one type of storage to another, or to apply the delivery sheet application to a contract. Security settings are available to make sure only authorized users can change the payee name. If a payee's name is changed the bank is updated to reflect changed name. If a user does not have the security to edit the payee name/address, lien holders, or other information, there is an over-ride feature.
a. A prompt to over-ride
b. Key in user's name and password that has rights to over-ride.
c. Edit payee information
If a user does not have rights and no one there has the ability to over-ride, then the check stays the way it appears on the screen. Any name changes, address changes, or lien holders would have to be setup the proper way in the system through the Name/Address package.
