Loading Invoice Comments Using MA540 or other automated process

I am new to the upload process (MA540) in Infor. We are looking to use this to upload batches of invoices in the near future. The item that seems to be an issue is the Invoice Comments. I spoke with Infor and was informed this is not something that can be uploaded using the MA540. If we have comments that are greater than the 15-30 characters that the descriptions allows, what is the best way to systematically load these comments? (PO-Based Invoices)

Did you find a solution for this issue? We want to add comments to payments upload using CB554

Unfortunately not. I was under the impression that a recent patch was going to fix this piece of the MA540 upload, but once again we found that it does not work. There is an enhancement request for this to be fixed, but I am told that it has been listed as a low level priority.

I am not familiar with CB554. Is this used with PO based invoices?

Have you looked at loading invoices using the AP520 interface? You can load comments through that interface using the APCATTACH file.

You load the comments on the CB554 interface, by populating the CLO-COMMENT1-CLO-COMMENT3 fields on the CBPMTLOAD file.

I have not. I will have to try it.

So I could load all of the invoice information via MA540 and then come back and load the comments via AP520?

I want to make sure that the invoices are matched if they are PO based...

Are you loading the invoices here as well? Or just comments?

If you want it to match, then I think the AP520 interface may not work. We just load invoices, with distribution lines and comments and run through AP520, we don't do any matching in this interface...

Thank you. We are aware of those 3 comments fields however we have a requirement to include more data than is available with the 3 comments fields.

CB554 is used to load one time payments. In our case patient refunds without the need for a separate vendor # for each payment.
