How to apply prepayment to Sales Trans Entry Invoice

Posted on by 150

A customer prepaid 10,000 Cash Receipt to future purchase.

We are Invoicing them for 13,000.

We need the Sales Invoice to show they owe us 3,000. (including: 13,000 - 10,000 = 3,000)

We can Apply payment afterword, but we need it on the actual Invoice.

Is there a line item we can add that subtracts the 10,000?  If so, how do you set that item up?

    If you don't mind me asking, how did you process these in GP?

    Re: How to apply prepayment to Sales Trans Entry Invoice

    We had GP Support write this customization years ago. I believe if you ask them fought they will provide for a price. It works really well and the invoice prints the total due minus any credit or payments.

    SOP Credit Total

    Product ID 5498

     

     

    Instructions for installing the customization

     

    Product Installation

     

    1. The first step is to copy the sopcred.cnk file to your current Great Plains directory of each of your client machines.
    2. Launch Great Plains.
    3. If you receive a question about "Do you want to include new code...." Choose Yes to this question, and it will install the new code for this product.

     

    New Table Creation

     

    Under SQL, new tables for the customization must be created.  These tables will be automatically created and permissions granted to the DYNGRP by logging into each company as the “sa” or “dynsa” user.  This only needs to be done once per company.  Any future companies created would also need to be logged into by the sa or dynsa users to properly create the tables for this customization.  The SQL Maintenance window (File | Maintenance | SQL) window can also be used to create and drop the tables and the table auto procedures for the table.

     

     

    Instructions for Using the Customization

     

    GP 9.0

    In the Sales Transaction Entry window, when the user clicks the print button to print a single document, before the print options window opens, the customization will open a separate custom window.  This window will display all the receivables credit documents for the customer on the SOP document that are not fully applied.  These documents will be displayed in a scrolling window.  In the scrolling window, there will also be a checkbox where the user can select credits.  A running sum will be shown at the bottom of the window.  After the user has selected credits and clicks ok, they will select which document to print and print it.  The window is as follows:

     

    In order to get the credit total to print on a SOP document, steps will need to be performed in GP Report Writer to pull this extra data on to the report.  The steps are as follows, the SOP Blank Invoice is used in this example, but any sop document will work.

    1. On the client site, launch into GP Report Writer and open the SOP Blank Invoice report. 
    2. Add a new calculated field, name the field CreditTotal.  The result type should be currency. 
    3. Select the user defined function called rw_TableHeaderCurrency under the System series and click add. 
    4. For the first parameter, select a constant of integer and enter 0 and click add. 
    5. For the second parameter, enter a string constant of “Invoice” and click add. 
    6. For the third parameter, select the SOP Number field from the SOP HDR Work table and click add. 
    7. For the fourth parameter, select the SOP Type field from the SOP HDR Work table and click add.
    8. For the fifth parameter, a constant of integer and enter 0 and click add.   Click ok to save the calculated field. 
    9. Add the calculated field on the report where you want to see the credit total. 

     

    The custom window that displays the credits will not actually apply the documents, anything selected in the window is for display purposes only on the report.  The custom window will only appear from the SOP Entry window when printing a single document.  It will not open if printing a batch of documents or if printing multiple sop documents from the Print Sales Documents window.

    Hmmm I have solved this by sending them a Customer Statement, have you ever considered the idea of using it? its very cool but beware with the dates Summarize to, Cut Off etc, but that will give them more confidence.

    I have made customizations that allow statements that include utilities, water, sewer billing with meter readings etc for towns.

    So what you look for is easy probably there will be no need to reinvent the wheel its there!!

    Have Fun

    when we send out an invoice to a customer, we hope they will send a check without any other action on our part.

    our customers problem is they get the invoice for 13,000 and don't know how much of their prepayment is left, and which prepayment is being applied to the current invoice.

    up to now, we have been hand writing the prepayment info on invoice.

    i guess i could modify our Invoice Form, if i can get the Applied amount to show in report.

    Hi Doug,

    If you apply a payment of $10,000 on an invoice of the $13,000, you will see pending payment of 3000 in the customer record. It will be printed on the Customer Statement and aged Trial Balance. It will also be visible as amount remaining in Receivables Transaction Inquiry window (Inquiry >> Sales >> Transaction by Customer).

    Does this satisfy your requirement? Do you want to see pending amount particular window or report?

    Rubal,
