Payment Modes - Flip C

From/To
These fields can be used to define separate Number Series for each Payment Mode. Receipts and Cash In records will use the Number Series in the left-hand From and To fields, while Payments and Cash Out records will use those in the right-hand fields. When entering a new transaction, the next number in the appropriate series is used when the Payment Mode is specified.

This feature can be useful in the Baltic States, where Invoices and Purchase Invoices use the common number sequences as well. To ensure this happens, you should also check the Common Number Series box in the Cash Book Settings setting in the Cash Book module. Once this box has been checked, the Payment Mode should be entered to the Payment Terms field of Invoices and Purchase Invoices. The Invoice Number will change to one in the correct sequence. When the Invoice or Purchase Invoice is approved, it is treated as paid and no posting to a Debtor or Creditor Account is made.

A consequence of this is that you should use different Codes in the Payment Modes and Payment Terms settings. For example, if you have used "C" as a Code in both settings and you enter it to the Payment Terms field in an Invoice, it will be treated as a reference to the Payment Term and not to the Payment Mode. Consequently, the Invoice Number will not be changed as expected and, depending on the nature of the Payment Term, the Invoice might not be treated as paid.

If you have not entered number sequences for the current year in the Number Series settings, you are free to use any number sequence for each Payment Mode. Otherwise, the sequences for each Payment Mode must be contained within those entered to those settings (this does not apply to Invoices or Purchase Invoices).

Paste Special    Choices of possible entries
This field allows a measure of control over whether Nominal Ledger Transactions are generated automatically when approving Payments or Receipts featuring each Payment Mode. The 'Paste Special' selection list contains two options: "GenTrans" and "Do Not GenTrans". Select the first option if Nominal Ledger Transactions are to be generated and the second if they are not. In effect, this feature is an exclusionary one in that you can only choose to not have Nominal Ledger Transactions created for a particular Payment Mode. If the overall preference (set in the Sub Systems setting in the Nominal Ledger) is to not have such transactions created, you cannot decide to have them created for a single Payment Mode.

This field is only used if the Common Number Series option in the Cash Book Settings setting in the Cash Book module is being used and if number sequences have been defined in the From and To fields.
