When entering bank transactions, we recommend preferring bank import, either through the bank integraion<\/a><\/span><\/span>what are bank interfaces?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> or by doing a file import<\/a><\/span><\/span>read how to import from a file<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Why? To reduce the possibility of errors and to speed up work processes.<\/p>\nNote<\/span> Transactions that cannot be linked to a purchase invoice, sales invoice, or expense report are not saved under receipts and payments. These are recorded as financial entries, except for salary and salary tax payments, which are entered in the payroll module.<\/p>\n

Entering Receipts<\/strong><\/div><\/div>\n

There are two ways to add receipts: starting from the invoice or from Operations -> Receipts.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/span>Adding a receipt from the invoice<\/strong><\/div>
\n

Option 1:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Go to the sales invoices list and find the invoice you want to mark as paid. Click on the three dots<\/strong> at the end of the row and select “Mark as Paid.<\/strong>“<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Option 2:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Go to the sales invoices list and find the invoice you want to mark as paid, then click to open the invoice<\/strong>. Here, you have three options (click on the selections to see more):<\/p>\n

1. Top right corner<\/span>2. Actions menu<\/strong><\/span>3. Receipts panel<\/strong><\/span><\/div>
If the invoice has been sent, there will be text saying “Unpaid<\/strong>” at the top right corner<\/strong> and a link below it that says “Mark as paid.<\/strong>“<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

In the Actions menu, there is an option “Mark as Paid.”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The panel following the invoice lines is “Receipts.”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n

If the invoice is partially marked as paid, you can use options 1 and 2 to mark the next portion as paid.<\/p>\n

Check the amount and date<\/strong>\u00a0and save the receipt. If the company has multiple bank accounts, be sure to select the correct one.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

<\/span>Adding a receipt from the Operations menu<\/strong><\/div>
\n

Operations -> Receipts -> New receipt<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

    \n
  1. Select a client<\/strong> from the existing list or add a new one.<\/li>\n
  2. In the Account\/Cash register<\/strong> field, the account set as the default in the settings will be displayed; you can change it if necessary.<\/li>\n
  3. Enter the received sum<\/strong>. If it is a refund for a credit invoice, the amount should be entered as a negative.<\/li>\n
  4. The date<\/strong> is the receipt date (according to the bank statement).<\/li>\n
  5. You can enter the invoice number or information about the advance payment in the additional information<\/strong> field.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Save the receipt. To link the receipt to the invoice, select Operations<\/strong> menu -> Link Receipt to Invoice<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    If the client has multiple<\/strong> outstanding invoices, select the appropriate ones from the list and click “Link Receipt to Invoices.<\/strong>“<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

    <\/span>Receipts with Pending Status<\/strong><\/div>
    \n

    If a receipt is in the list with a “Pending<\/strong>” status, it indicates that the receipt is partially or fully unlinked from the invoice(s).<\/p>\n

    If the receipt is completely unlinked from the invoice, the entire receipt amount is reflected in the customer advance payments account. If the receipt is partially unlinked, the unlinked portion is reflected in the advance payments account.<\/p>\n

    If the receipt is linked to an invoice with a date later than the receipt date, the system will create an additional financial entry to offset the customer advance payments account against the customer payable account.<\/p>\n

    If the receipt date is the same as or later than the invoice date, the financial entry for the receipt will be modified, and the customer advance payments account will be replaced with the customer payable account.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

    <\/span>Sales Ledger<\/strong><\/div>
    \n

    Under Reports -> Sales Ledger<\/strong>, you can see the customer debts and unused advances.<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    The Total sum<\/strong> column shows the total amount of the invoice\/advance payment. The Balance<\/strong> indicates the unpaid portion of the invoice or the unused portion of the advance.
    \n<\/div><\/div>\n

    <\/div>\n
    Entering payments<\/strong><\/div><\/div>\n

    Adding payments is largely analogous to receipts.<\/p>\n

    <\/span>Adding a Payment from the Invoice<\/strong><\/div>
    \n

    Go to the purchase invoices list, find the necessary purchase invoice, and click to open it.<\/p>\n

    1. Actions menu<\/strong><\/span>2. Payments panel<\/strong><\/span><\/div>
    Select “Mark<\/strong> as<\/strong> Paid<\/strong>” from the Actions<\/strong> menu; you can also mark it as a favorite for easy access.<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    Below the invoice lines, there is a Payments panel.<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n

    If the invoice is partially marked as paid, the option to add the next payment will only be available from the Actions menu.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

    <\/span>Adding a Payment from the Operations Menu<\/strong><\/div>
    \n

    Operations -> Payments -> New payment<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The process for entering payments and linking them to invoices follows the same logic as for receipts. The difference arises when selecting an individual\/reporting person<\/strong> as the supplier; the details of the added person will be displayed. In the payment view, there will be an additional option for “Payment Recipient Type<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n

    If you have purchased goods from an individual under a purchase-sale<\/strong> agreement<\/strong>, they will be your “Supplier.” You enter the contract under purchase invoices and can link it to the payment.<\/p>\n

    If it is an employee of the company<\/strong> to whom you are paying based on an expense report, travel report, or mileage log, you must select “Reporting Person.<\/strong>“<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

    <\/span>Payments with Pending Status<\/strong><\/div>
    \n

    If a payment is in the list with a “Pending<\/strong>” status, it indicates that the payment is partially or fully unlinked from the invoice(s).<\/p>\n

    If the payment is completely unlinked from the invoice, the entire payment amount is reflected in the advance payments account. If the payment is partially unlinked, the unlinked portion is reflected in the advance payments account.<\/p>\n

    If the payment is linked to an invoice with a date later than the payment date, the system will create an additional financial entry to offset the advance payments account against the payable account to suppliers.<\/p>\n

    If the payment date is the same as or later than the invoice date, the financial entry for the payment will be modified, and the advance payments account will be replaced with the payable account to suppliers.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

    <\/span>Purchase Ledger and Reporting Persons Report<\/div>
    \n

    You can view supplier-related debts and advances under Reports -> Purchase Ledger.<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    You can view debts and advances related to reporting persons under Reports -> Reporting Persons.<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    The reports also display the total amounts of invoices and payments, as well as the outstanding balance or advance payment.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
