Why ask the customer to pick? Why not generate invoices with a randomly picked bank account (which can also lend itself to automatic rebalancing)? The simple answer to this is because "Payment Advice" is a big text field in your

Also smaller less sophisticated vendors (I include my company in this) simply enter your remittance information once in their banking system on the first invoice. We aren't going to want to update it every time. They could have it rand

In theory this sounds awesome but I have to say that demo was pretty underwhelming. It looks like there's a bunch of configuration that needs to be done to ensure this is set up properly, not the least of which is that the app needs to

Netflix isn’t choosing the policy they’re just required to enforce them per the licensing restrictions of the content they get rights too. The studios who license the content do so on a geographic basis to various streaming providers. It’s
