AR-Payments received and clearing the AR (by chartfield dimension of the invoice)

As a school, we use fund accounting; our general receivable main account is 1312 and we bill customers by multiple funds (such as fund 1000, 2000, 3000 etc).... this is my example:
 
Main Account = 1312
Fund = varies
Department = 00000
Location = 1701
 
I billed Customer (TEST001) Invoice# Test111 and the accounting entries were  AR 1312-1000-00000-1701 DR $500 and CR 4899-1000-00000-1701 ($500.00)
I billed Customer (TEST002) Invoice # Test 234 and the accounting entries were AR 1312-3000-00000-1701 DR $33 and CR 4601-3000-00000-1701 ($300.00)
 
When the payment is received for the two invoices - I want to be able to select INV # Test 234 and the system to know that it should CR 1312-3000-00000-1701 for $33 and DR CASH (appropriate accounts) and a CR to 1312-1000-00000-1701 for $500 and DR CASH ---
 
If there a way to do this automatically (looking to see where the invoice was booked too) without having to manually enter my chartfield dimensions of where the invoice was booked too?

    Hi,
     
    As per the last reply from Billur, at the time the payment customer transaction is fully settled, it will create additional transactions to clear balances on financial dimensions.

    As a workaround, you may select some dimensions and when you settle, system will correct the dimension if fully settled payment. But it will cause some additional transactions and voucher that are the transfer balances between dimensions. Ä°f that doesn't fully settle than the balance will stay in incorrect dimensions. So I think it is better to go with a customization.

    Once we have made customization with our team but not that I know of anyone that generated the perfect code. It is doable but not easy to do while there are different rules to be applied.

    @BillurSamdancioglu --- do you know if anyone has built a customization for that?

    Hi,
     
    Unfortunately this is not possible out of box.
