D365 Business Central cash receipt journal cannot apply customer payments to future dated sales invoices

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by CC D35 5

Hi all,

I work for a disability sector. There is high volume of AR receipt each day.

We use cash receipt journal to enter bank statement each day.

However,  majority of our sales invoices are dated after the customer payment date. Cash receipt journal doesn't allow applying to future dated invoices.

Is there a way work around it so we can apply customer payment to future dated invoices on Business Central?

I tried looking into payment reconciliation journal, but it doesn't seem to work well.

Thanks.

    No, you can not apply a payment with a posting date prior to the posting date of the invoice.

    If you need to do that you must post the payment, then do a manual apply afterwards.

    No work around for this as far as i know. It is the same with AP and i have just been looking for a solution to it there.

    The work around i would do would be to use document date as the date of the actual payment and the posting date at the same date as the invoice. It is not ideal but it could help. As long as the dates are in the same accounting period the impact is not that big.

    If you need to post a payment before the invoice you are essentially processing a pre-payment.

    Have you looked at pre-payments in BC? That will require a change in your AR process, but it might solve the problem.

    Hi,

    Its not possible to put the future date to do the customer payment, but you can use the prepayment functionality before actually shipping the order.
