16 Settlement of Collection

This topic provides the systematic instructions to settle the Collections.

Once the goods are shipped and the Importer receives the trade documents, the Exporter draws out the Bills to be paid by the Importer. With the introduction of the ‘Settlement of Bill’ transaction, the Importer can now liquidate the Bills he has received under his Import LC, i.e. he can instruct the bank to pay the Bills he has received, from one of his accounts. The user can also use one of his booked forward deals while settling the Bill.

The user can settle either multiple bills from his account, with or without a forex deal, or apply for a loan to settle the bills. The user can link the FX deals

Pre-requisites
  • User must have a valid corporate party Id and login credentials in place
  • At least a single Import LC should exist for the party ID and party must having view rights for it
