Who this is for. AR and cash-application staff who review remittances and write payments to Workday. Only the SuperAdmin role can use AR Remittances. See Roles and Access.
Availability. The Documents tab appears when AR Remittances is enabled for your organization and turned on for the selected instance. You choose the instance in the ERP: picker. You can turn on AR Remittances only on an instance whose system of record (SoR) is Workday.
Overview
The Document Information page shows one document beside the values the agent extracted from it. You compare the customer and the payment record with the attachment. You correct any wrong value, then write the payment to the SoR.
To open the page, select the document icon beside the File Type value of a row in any Documents sub-tab. The actions on the page depend on the sub-tab you open it from.

The customer block sits at the top of the right panel. It shows the matched customer and the state of the document. Classification, Status and Confidence explains each value.
Table 3. Fields and controls in the customer block
Field |
What it shows |
Control beside it |
|---|---|---|
Customer |
The matched customer's name and ID, such as Northwind Traders (C-1001), or Unknown Customer. |
Match with a Customer, which opens a searchable customer list. See Customer Hints. |
Classification |
Remittance or Others. |
Not a Payment, on a remittance. Change to Payment, on an Others document. An Others document shows no Edit, Write to SoR, or Match with a Customer. Change to Payment runs at once, with no confirmation dialog. The document becomes a Remittance with the status New and an Unknown Customer. Match the customer and fill in the payment record before you write it. |
Customer Match Status |
Known, Unknown, or Unenrolled. |
Enroll, for an Unenrolled customer. Selecting it enrols the customer in AR Remittances. The customer's open documents then read Known, and you can write them. Until then, Edit does not appear and Write to SoR is unavailable. |
Document Status |
The status of the document. |
None |
Payment Record
The Payment Record holds the header fields the agent extracted. Which fields appear, and their labels, depend on how your organization's payment record is configured. Table 4 lists the standard fields. A field with no value shows --.
Table 4. Standard payment record fields
Field |
What it holds |
|---|---|
Entity |
The entity that receives the payment. See How the Entity Field Is Set. |
Payment Date |
The date of the payment. |
Total Amount |
The total amount of the payment. |
Currency |
The currency of the payment. The document list shows it in the Currency column. |
Payment Number |
The payment number on the remittance. |
Transaction Reference |
The transaction reference on the remittance. The agent also uses it, with the payment number, to find duplicate remittances. How AR Remittances Processes a Remittance gives the full rule. |
The customer shows in the customer block, not in the payment record. Your organization's configuration can add further fields.
Line Items
Line Items lists the invoice or bill lines that the payment covers, one row per line. The number of lines shows in brackets after the heading. The columns depend on your organization's configuration.
Table 5. Line Items controls

The Sum row shows one total, under Invoice Amount. Compare it with Total Amount in the payment record to check that the lines cover the whole payment. You cannot edit the Sum row. It totals the lines shown, so a column filter changes the total. The Sum row is hidden while you edit and returns when you save or cancel. After a save, it totals the saved amounts.

Email Threads shows the email that delivered the attachment. The email carries the same details here as in the Mailbox.

Document history
View Document History opens a panel that lists the changes recorded on the document, by the agent and by users. A refresh icon beside the panel title reloads the history. The AI Agent and User checkboxes at the top choose whose changes the list shows. Both are selected when the panel opens.
Table 7. History entry columns

Selecting an entry shows its field detail. Most AI Agent entries use the columns in Table 8.
Table 8. Field detail columns
Column |
What it shows |
|---|---|
Field Type |
Whether the field is a header field or a line field. |
Field Name |
The field that changed. |
Extracted Value |
The value the agent read from the document. |
Assigned Value |
The value the field was given. |

The source of the assigned value. Extraction marks a value read from the document. Hints marks a value set from customer hints, such as the customer name or the entity. Predictive Coding marks a value predicted from the values used on earlier records. A value that starts with Business Rule: names the business rule that set it. |
An entry by a user uses other columns: Field Type, Action, Field Name, Previous Value, and Modified Value. Action shows what the user did, such as Modify for a changed field or Add for a new line. The AI Agent entry that records a document's creation uses these columns too, with the Action Creation.
History covers changes recorded after document history was turned on for your organization. For an older document, the panel reads No audit history available.
Note: Determined By reads Extraction for a value that an AR remittance mapping set. For mappings, see AR Remittance Mapping Overview.
