Enter Payments from Owners

The Operating Statement Update created Accounts Receivable Invoices for Owners that were billed for Expenses. Hopefully, they will send you money after they receive their Operating Statement. This is the process for recording the payments you receive.

When Investors send you their payments for the Operating Statements you select the invoice in A/R they are paying and enter the amount of the payment. It is easier if you have a recent Accounts Receivable Inquiry Report in front of you while posting the payments.

TUTORIAL SCENARIO

We will make a payment for one of the Operating Statements you printed earlier. When the Operating Statements were Updated it created an Accounts Receivable invoice. The Invoice Number and dates will probably be different, but the principle is the same.

From the Drop Down Menu, select A/R - Make Payments or JE’s.

Enter Company Number= 01, Owner/Customer Number=10000, then click OK. Click Get Data and complete the payment.

Note: GL Number 11300 is hard coded for Accounts Receivable. Derek will make an automatic Credit to that GL Number for Payments. See GL Number Restrictions.

Click OK.

You can change owner numbers to enter a payment for another Owner. For the Tutorial, we will simply Close.

Note on Application Type: Although we are entering a Payment, this routine also allows you to enter Journal Entry Credits(JEC), Journal Entry Debits(JED), and Discounts(DSC).

Finished!
