Customer Deductions

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 495

Hi All,

We have large retail customers who make frequent deductions.  If the deductions pertain to an invoice they are paying we can leave a balance on that invoice.  If the deduction is for advertising or something else not pertaining to an invoice being paid we have an issue in Navision.

We would like to pay off the invoices on the remittance in full and have a chargeback invoice created for the deduction amount until it is researched and resolved.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to handle this situation in Navision?
Thank you.

Linzer

    RE: Customer Deductions

    We create two journal entries:

    1 -  a Credit to the customer in the amount of the deduction - apply to g/l account you use for advertising.  Use the description field to document they reason/type for the deuction.

    2 - an Invoice to the customer in the amount of the deduction - apply to g/l account you use for advertising.  Use the description field to state adv pending authorization or what ever you prefer.

    We also use the check# as these journal entries ext doc numbers with an -a or -b  added to the end just for reference purposes.

    When you go to apply the payment you use the credit you created to close the check completely.  An invoice for the deduction remains.  Once it's authorized you can create another journal entry credit to wipe out the invoice.

    Always use the same g/l account so it all washes out properly.

    These are extra steps but as you stated you don;t want to leave a open balance so these steps are necessary.

    Thank you.

    I did come across that add-on as well.

    We will look into it further.

    Thanks.

    Hi Stacey,

    directly in NAV with the base product: no. But after some Google-fu this one showed up: www.navcsg.com/.../chargeback-ar This sounds more or less like what you describe. The question is: Do they have it for your NAV version ready? But maybe it's worth a call.

    with best regards

    Jens
