Customer PDC: keep the customer balance open until maturity?

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 1,179

Client receives a lot of customer post-dated cheques. Standard PDC posts the customer credit at receipt, which is what they want to avoid.

The red step settles the invoice and drops the balance on day one, before the cheque clears.
 

What they want
 

At receipt: accrual onlyDr Cheques received / CrControlCustomer balanceand aging UNTOUCHEDAt maturity: reverse accrual+ Dr Bank / Cr Customer

Current proposal is to hold the customer payment journal unposted until maturity and post it via a batch job (posting early throws the "maturity date is in the future" error). I'm uneasy about thousands of unposted, editable journal lines sitting there for weeks with an accrual already posted against them.

Questions

  1. Has anyone tested Post journal entries for postdated checks = No on the customer side? Can't find a clear statement of what it actually posts.

  2. Held unposted journal vs a custom PDC register table with the journal generated at maturity — what have people actually run, and how did it cope at volume?

  3. Any pure configuration route that defers the customer hit?

Thanks.
