AR Prepayment Invoice

Posted on by Community Member

I have a request to post a prepayment invoice for a customer posting to deferred revenue, process the payment relieving the AR and then applying the balance to a Sales Order.

The issue I'm running into is that the AR process for prepayments does not appear to work using the same logic as the AP side. (AP process allows you to post the prepay invoice, post payment against it and continue to apply to the PO) The AR side does not seem to allow you to apply an AR prepayment to a SO if it is settled against an invoice. Most companies obviously need to post an AR prepayment invoice and payment journal.

My question: Does anyone know how to post a prepayment invoice, and receive payment while still maintaining the ability to apply it to a SO. As invoices are posted from the SO it should still pull form the prepay posting profile (deferred revenue account). Essentially mimicking the AP process.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the quick reply Affan. I'm pursuing the work-around mentioned. I think this may work. Hope MCS update the process some day.

Hi Adrian,

There is a difference in prepayment process for PO and SO. On SO you don't have this process

So there are two options either to customize the process for SO using the same system logic of PO or going for a manual workaround.

There is one workaround suggested on community for AX 2012 and same can be used in the D365FO also. For the details of the workaround please see the link
