Before you start
An L/G facility list is available to signed-in users who have access to the Finance configuration area. The list and its actions can change with subscription access and your permissions. Your company's setup determines the headers and available actions.
Prerequisites
- Sign in to PAMS.
- Have access to the Finance configuration area.
- Have an existing facility row when you need to edit or delete a value.
- Have permission to edit the row before you select the edit action.
- Have permission to delete the row before you open its delete menu.
- Use a saved row when you need the edit form or log history.
The list appears when subscription access is available. The edit form opens for a selected item, and log history appears while an existing item is being edited.
Find the L/G facilities list
The L/G facilities list is the Finance reference list for the facility values associated with banks. Open it from the Finance configuration area, then use the visible finance labels to recognise the correct list.
Prerequisites
- Complete the prerequisites in Before you start.
Steps
- Open the Finance configuration area.
- Select LGs Facilities.
- Confirm that LGs Facilities is the selected finance entry.
- Confirm that the list shows Banks, Bank Accounts, LGs Facilities, and Invoice Settings as the visible finance reference entries.
Result: The L/G facilities list is open, with its six visible headers and finance reference entries on screen.
Understand the facilities screen
The list identifies each bank by short name and records a facility amount plus percentage measures for bid bond, down payment, performance, and warranty.
| Field | List | Form | Required |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bank short name | Visible | Not present | Required in the configuration |
| Full name | Hidden | Not present | Required in the configuration |
| Applying date | Hidden | Visible | Required |
The list showed 10 rows.
Note: Facility amounts use a currency picker and accept non-negative numbers formatted as
#,##0.00. Percentage measures accept values from 0 to 100 and display a percent suffix.
Currency choices belong to the Banks page's currency collection. The selected currency also determines the symbol shown with the facility amount; there is no separate symbol choice on this form.
The screen also shows icon buttons titled Refresh and Settings. The New action is not part of this facilities list. The bank name fields shown in the list are not editable on this form.
