In payment posting, which option describes where the payment should be recorded?

Payments are entered in a dedicated bucket for posting, which acts as the staging area where cash receipts are captured, checked, and then applied to the correct patient accounts. This setup keeps the posting process organized, auditable, and separate from source documents. The remittance advice informs what was paid and why, guiding the posting, but the actual recording happens in the posting bucket. The payer file holds payer-specific information, not the cash posting, and the claim file contains claim details, not the posted payment.
