Suspense Accounts

Note: If your company is using suspense accounts, the system setting, "Suspense Account," in the Accounting folder must be set to "True" (Enable). Additionally, users must have the authority, "Suspense Account Setup," (Company Configuration group) to add, edit and delete suspense accounts.

 

Suspense Account Setup allows you to establish a suspense account (or accounts) that is used to process any payments that cannot be directly associated with an existing policy in Diamond and capture the data regarding these payments for reporting purposes. Before adding a suspense account, you must establish the account number in Company Configuration: Billing / Bank Account Setup.
