Complete a collection order
You can complete the collection order automatically when entering or importing the bank statement. You can however also complete the collection order manually.
If you generate a collection file, Profit enters it on the suspense account Bedragen onderweg and the collection order gets the In progress status.
As soon as the actual debit notice (via the bank statement) arrives, you create a journal entry in the journal of the relevant bank account number or import the bank statement. Use the same Bedragen onderweg account as contra account, to settle the balance.
When entering or importing the bank statement, you can enter the collected amount on the Bedragen onderweg account and directly link the batch number of the collection order to it (provided that the batch number field is included in the entry layout). As a result, the collection order is linked to the line on which it is credited in the bank statement and in Profit the collection order gets the Completed status. However, this link is not mandatory; you can also complete the collection order manually.

SEPA collection error/return codes
Transactions in a SEPA collection file you have sent to your bank or 'Equens' can be rejected or refunded. These are called R transactions. The ‘R’ represents the exception type, for example ‘Reject’ and ‘Refund’. For such transactions, this code and description is found in the bank statement (file) and can be imported by Profit.
The data collections for financial entries and the bank statement entry layout include the Return reason code and Return reason description fields of a collection refusal. It is useful to add these fields to the views and entry layout concerned so that this data can be displayed for a R-transaction and can help in deciding what action to take.
The collection type (first, recurrent, one-off, last) and the R-transaction type determine how you treat any R-transaction received.
Return reason code is a default error code based on the ISO standard with a corresponding default alert text. For more information on the error codes and R transactions for European collections, please refer to, for example, the web site of the Betaalvereniging Nederland.
Reverse a collection
In the case of a reversal of a payment via a bank statement, Profit determines the Transaction delivery code of the transaction (FRST or RCUR) in the next collection from the debtor in question as follows:
- In the case of a reversal of an RCUR transaction via a bank statement, the next transaction in a collection order is an RCUR transaction for all return codes.
- In the case of a reversal of an FRST transaction via a bank statement, the next transaction in a collection order is an FRST transaction for all return codes, with the exception of the MD06 return code.
