# Set up accrual plans to accept deduction payments

You can assign a deduction line to an accrual plan if the plan has the correct payment settings. When the deduction is posted, the program creates a payment entry for the deduction amount in the assigned accrual plan's ledger.

> The following steps describe how to set up an accrual plan to accept deduction payments. There are other steps required when creating Anywhere Mobility Solutions new accrual plan. For more information on creating accrual plans, see [Create customer rebates/promotions](/business-central/docs/bc-create-customer-rebates-promotions).

## Steps

1. In the search box, enter **Customer Rebates/Promos**, and then choose the related link.
2. Open the relevant customer rebate/promo card and click the **Payments** FastTab.
3. Leave the **Use Payment Schedule** field blank. You cannot post deductions to an accrual plan that has payment schedules enabled.
4. Select either **Source** or **Plan** in the **Payment Posting Level** field.
5. Select either **Source Bill-to** or **Customer** in the **Payment Type** field.

You cannot set the source bill-to as the payment type if the accrual plan's payment posting level is **Plan**.
6. Fill in the payment accounts for the accrual plan:
  - If the payment type is **Source Bill-to**, click the **Customers** FastTab and enter one or more customers on the lines.
  - If the payment type is **Customer**, fill in the **Payment Code** field with the customer number you want to assign as the sole payment account.

When a deduction line is created from a customer payment, the program lets you assign it to an accrual plan if the relevant customer has been assigned as a payment account on the accrual plan.
