Purchasing Payment Terms

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 12

We have a situation and I am not sure if I fully understand what I am looking at - and therefore do not feel comfortable calling it an error.

Here is the situation.

Client has a payment cycle and are firm on this so that is not going to change.

All invoices recieved in the month of January, whether the 1st or 31st are paid by the 29th of the following month.  What they say is the DUE Date and DISCOUNT date are the same date and they are the 29th of the following month.

Payment Terms

In setting up the payment terms we currently have them configured as EOM plus 29 days for both DUE and DISCOUNT.  Discount has a 2% factor.

Due Date

Calculate from : Transaction date Add Days: zero

Due : EOM Add Days: 29

Discount

Discount : EOM Add Days:  29

Discount Type : Percent 2%


Calculate Discount On - Sales / Purchase

Issue

When we enter an invoice with a DOCUMENT date of 1st of January

Doc Date : 01/01/2016
DISCOUNT / DUE dates of 02/29/2016 ( PERFECT )

This works up to the 30th of January

When we enter an invocie with a DOCUMENT date of 31st of January

Doc Date : 01/31/2016

Due Date : 03/29/2016

Discount Date : 02/29/2016

When we enter an invoice with a DOCUMENT date of 15th of February

Doc Date : 02/15/2016

Due / Discount : 03/29/2016


When we enter an invoice with a DOCUMENT date of 28th PERFECT, with 29th February

Doc Date : 02/29/2016

Due Date : 04/29/2016

Discount Date : 03/29/2016

This cycle continues for the entire 12 months.  Every time I enter an invoice that is dated at the end of the month, 31st, 30th, 29th, is does the same thing.  It skips the entire next month and sets the DUE to the 29th of the NEXT following month.

 

Request

Can I get someone to confirm that this is the case they have as well.  And if I am doing something wrong, tell me how to correct.  Is there a known work around for this?

    Greetings John,

    Well it must be working for us the way we have it configured, I looked at my notes and do not see anything else on this mater in my file.  Now all this means is that we got this working for the client the way they wanted - it does not mean it is correct in the code.

    Sorry don't want to hang you out there - but that is what my notes tell me.

    Bill, this an older post but did you ever get a resolution on this?  I have a client seeing this issue now on GP 2015 R2.

    Thanks Justin.

    I still think that this is a problem in the coding and I believe it should be addressed by Microsoft.  What if the DUE date were the 29 and the DISCOUNT were to the be the 25?

    What happens then.  I am not expecting Justin to solve this, it is more a question for Microsoft and one that this client will be looking for a change to the better.

    Thanks again Justin.

    Hi Bill,

    I did a very quick test and the below seems to work.  Please give it a try and let me know your results.
