Entering payments against invoices

To enter a payment against an invoice:

1 Open 3-3 Cash Receipts.
2 Do the following:
a In the Account text box, enter the ledger account number for the cash account.
b In the Deposit# text box, enter the deposit number.
c In the Date text box, enter the deposit date.
d In the Description text box, enter a brief statement about the transaction.
3 Do one of the following:
a In the Client text box, enter the client number.
b In the Job text box, enter the job number.
4 Do one of the following:
a Click the Contract Invoices tab.
b Click the Service Invoices tab.
5 Click the Display button.
6 In the grid, do the following:
a In the Paid cell, enter the total amount received.
Do not include any discount or credit in this amount.
b If you are using discounts, in the Disc Available cell, enter the amount of the discount.
If you are not using discounts, skip step b.

Important! To enter an overpayment for an invoice, the total of the Paid and Discount cells must equal the amount in the Balance text box. Then in the Overpayment cell, enter the amount paid in addition to the invoice payment, not the total amount.

7 Repeat step 6 for each invoice you want to pay.
8 On the File menu, click Save.

Tip: If you do not enter a job number or client number, Sage 100 Contractor displays all invoices.
