Sales Order Prepayment

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 1,203

I was wondering if someone could answer these questions

1. Suppose I have a prepayment of 100 bucks on an order of 10.00 because I am expecting to get more order but no certain how to transfer only 10 to the invoice?

2. What happens to the money when I say do not transfer deposits to invoice?

3. Can I squeeze the payment with time from the same order prepaid amount?

Thanks,

Sat

    Thanks, Mariano for clarifying it. I could not find this answer anywhere.

    1. You cannot do partial transfers of the deposit amount to the invoice. If you suspect you will have multiple shipments for the order, leading to multiple invoices, my recommendation is to enter the $100 as a cash receipt that can then be applied to individual invoices until it is fully applied.

    2. If you choose not to transfer the deposit to the invoice, your Sales Transfer Log will basically tell you that the deposit on the order could not be transferred, although the order was able to be transferred to an invoice (assuming there are no other exceptions). The invoice effectively will reflect the original on order total, less the deposit.

    The order however, will continue to reflect the original quantity ordered with the deposit on it, and yes, you can transfer this to an invoice any number of times (assuming there's inventory to fulfill the order) if you continue to perform successive transfers - I still cannot figure out what the rationale is behind this, but this is how it works.

    3. Yes and No. Yes, only if you follow what I outlined in your first question. No, because if you choose to enter the deposit directly on the sales order, Dynamics GP does not allow deposits on orders to be transferred partially to the invoice. Alternatively, you can transfer the full amount deposited on the order to the invoice, which will then create a credit in AR for this customer. As you progressively ship product to them, you can then apply the credit balance to each invoice corresponding to each partial shipment.

    I just made some grammatical mistakes , lets try to correct it -

    1. Being on an order of $10, I got a prepaid of $100, what to do with the other 90 bucks?

    2. What happens to the money when I say 'do not transfer' deposits to invoice?

    3. Can I squeeze the payment with time from the same prepaid amount for different invoices?
