Entering open credit invoices

When you apply a credit, Sage 100 Contractor adjusts the invoice and vendor balance. If the credit has a balance after applying it to an invoice, Sage 100 Contractor assigns the credit status 1-Open, but if the entire amount of the credit is applied, Sage 100 Contractor assigns it status 4-Paid.

To enter an open credit invoice:
