    Section 1: Customer Card

    All customers will be recorded in the system and each one of them will have hisown customer card. On the Customer Card users will have to provide basicinformation related to the specific customer. Some of the fields on the customercard are critical and need to be filled out. If not, you will not be able to use that

    customer. (Those fields have been highlighted below). All the other fields areoptional and as a general rule –  you will select a value only if there is a defaultvalue for that customer. For example, if you always (or most of the times) shipitems from a specific warehouse –  select that warehouse as the default value inthe Location Code field. You can always change the default value on a SalesQuote/Order/Invoice.

    To create a new customer, follow the steps below:

    documents.

    If the button shows lines - that is an indication that the specific customer

    card has comments.

    6.  Type the Name and the Address

    Section 3: Sales and Receivables Process Overview

    It is important to understand that the above diagram describes the overall Salesand Receivables process. Different steps in the process will most probably be performed by different departments/ users in the company.

    Step 1: Typically, the Sales or Order Processing department will create the SalesQuote/ Order for stock items. The order will be then released to the warehousefor shipping. At this point the order may be put on hold temporarily due toapproval requirements or customer credit limit.

    Step 2: When the items are shipped from the warehouse, the warehouseemployee will have to find the sales order (created previously by the Sales orOrder Processing department) and “ship” the goods from the warehouse. At that point, a Posted Sales Shipment  document will be created and placed under theHistory section. The Item card will also be updated to reflect the shippedquantity. Normally, the G/L and the Customer card will not be updated yet. Theonly exception will be, if you have the expected cost option activated. If so, theexpected cost will be posted to designated Interim G/L accounts.

  • 8/17/2019 Accounts Receivables NAV 5.0

    16/43

    Copyright, SCS, Inc. 2008 Page: 16 of 43

    Step 3: In turn, the accounting department will have to find the sales ordercreated in step 1. After a number of fields are verified/ updated, the user will

    eventually “invoice” the sales order. That will create a Posted Sales Invoice document that will be placed under the History section. At this point theCustomer Card will be updated and the G/L will be hit. If you have the expectedcost option activated, the expected cost that was posted in step 2 will be reversed

    and actual cost will be posted to the designated G/L accounts.

    If the sales order has been fully “shipped” and “invoiced”, the document that wascreated in Step 1 will be deleted from the system. However, the Posted SalesShipment and the Posted Sales Invoice will be still available under the historysection. Those will be the documents that will be used for future reference. Bothdocuments will have reference to the original Sales Order No. and Customer POnumber.

    Sales invoices (any invoice that does not include inventory items, e.g. servicecharges), will be normally created, processed and posted solely by the accountingdepartment. For recording such sales invoices, the person responsible will use the

    Sales Invoice instead of Sales Order. Both documents have more or less the samefunctionality with the only difference that Sales Order is used when you havestock items that need to be shipped from the warehouse, whereas the SalesInvoice is used to record other fees (e.g. consultancy fees).

    Alternatively, the Sales (Recurring) Journal can be used for a simpler way ofrecording Sales Invoices.

    Section 4: Creating a Sales Invoice for Miscellaneous Fees

    Using Sales Invoice

    For all sales invoices that will not include stock items (that need to be Shipped in

    the warehouse), the user will start from the Sales Invoice document (and not the

    Sales Order). Example will be invoice for consultancy fees.

    for the customer, as well as Contacts (in the CRM application area).

    Section 7: Applying Entries

    The application of a payment to an invoice can be done in several ways.

    Those are described below:

    First of all, the policy that governs the application is specified on the

    Customer Card (Payments tab) 

       Manual  means that the program will apply payments only if you specify

    a document.

       Apply to Oldest means that if you do not specify a document for the

     payment to be applied to, the program will apply the payment to the

    oldest of the customer's open entries.

    The following scenarios are for the Manual application method:

     Applying the Payment to One Invoice only

    In the Deposit line that you created in Section 6 of this document, fill out the

    following fields (you may need to show the columns if you do not see them):

    1.  Applies-to Doc. Type  –  Skip this and have system fill in for you.

    2.  Applies-to Doc. No. –  select the invoice you want to apply the payment to

    and click OK

     Applying the Payment to Multiple Invoices

    1.  In the Deposit Line that you created in Section 6 of this document, clear

    the following fields (you may need to show the columns if you do not see

    them):

      Applies-to Doc. Type   Applies-to Doc. No.

    In the screen that pops up, the header section contains all the details for the

     payment line.

     Note: The fields highlighted in green are relevant only if the payment was in a

    different currency than the local one.

    The lines below show all the open Customer Ledger Entries for the Customer

    who issued the check.

    3.  Click on the line that represents the invoice that you want to apply the

     payment to , then click the . The Apply-To ID field will be

     populated with the Document No of the payment line that you created in

    Section 6. 

     Hint: You can hold and select multiply lines. Then, hit .

    4.  Payment Discounts

    If the Invoice that you selected has payment terms that allow you payment

    discounts (i.e. Pmt Discount Date on the line is on or after the work date),

    then the payment discount will be reflected in the bottom of the screen. You

    can change Pmt Discount Date and Remaining Pmt Disc Possible fields if

    needed.

     payment discount.

    35/43

    Copyright, SCS, Inc. 2008 Page: 35 of 43

    Also, if you have set up a policy for Payment Tolerances (in the General

    Ledger Setup), that is allowing to close invoices when you have an over or

    under-payment for an invoice up to a certain limit, the Max Payment

    Tolerance field on the line will show that limit.

    6.  Partial PaymentsIf you want to create a partial payment (i.e. apply the payment to several

    invoices and specify the amount to apply), after you complete step 1 above,

    click in the Amount to Apply field and overwrite the amount.

    7.  Click .

     Note: The Amount field on the payment journal line will be filled in

    automatically if you left it blank.

     Applying the Payment to Invoice(s) after Posting

    It is also possible to proceed with the posting of the payment without any

    application (e.g. you are not sure which invoice you are paying). If you

    decide to do that, you will simply finalize the manual creation of the payment

    line; print the check if computer checks; and finally post the journal.

    In this case, you will do the application after the posting of the journal. To do

    that, follow the instructions below:

    1. Go to CUSTOMERS
