We need the ability to do multiple prepayment invoices and at the moment we can only do one. This is a common practice for our business and in our previous system we had the capability to do this.

Hi,


Yes, this is something needed, not only manage one prepayment on purchase order or sale order.


Now, the only way I am suggesting to make this possible, by having the right accounting process in deposit or prepaid G/L account, is to use Blanket order to follow all prepayments:


Line 1: G/L deposit 30%, create one purchase order for this line only, post the receive and invoice and then create the payment

Line 2: G/L deposit 70% create one purchase order for this line only, post the receive and invoice and then create the payment


Line 3: Item ordered with the right qty and cost

Line 4: GL deposit 100%in negative

Then line 3 and 4 are converted in Purchase order to net the total amount to pay (with or without Quebec taxes), receive and invoice both line in condition that the deposit amount is not higher of the invoice total. If so, I am creating a credit note of the total deposit made and after I will applied the credit document to the invoice.


So if you can consider add to the road map the possibility to create more than 1 prepayment by purchase or sale order and also make possible to correct the purchase order if the qty or cost is changing in final receipt and invoice, it will be appreciated.


Thanks,

Great suggestion. I have customers who require an upfront deposit on an order followed by an additional deposit once the goods are shipped needing this type of functionality.
