Row Menu - Receipt - Distribute Receipt

This page describes the 'Distribute Receipt' function on the Row menu in the Receipt record window. If you are using iOS or Android, the 'Distribute Receipt' function is on the Tools menu (with 'wrench' icon).

The 'Distribute Receipt' function will be useful when a Customer sends you a payment without specifying the Invoices that they are paying. In this circumstance, follow these steps:

  1. Enter a new Receipt and specify the Customer Number and Received Value in a new row.

  2. Leave the insertion point in the row. Then, open the Row menu by right-clicking (Windows) or ctrl-clicking (Mac OS X) the row number and select the 'Distribute Receipt' command from the resulting menu. If you are using iOS or Android, select 'Distribute Receipt' from the Tools menu (with 'wrench' icon). The Received Value will be distributed to one or more Invoices as appropriate.

By default, the Received Value will be distributed to Invoices in Invoice Number order (starting with the lowest). If you need it to be distributed to Invoices in Due Date order (starting with the oldest), select the Oldest Due Date option in the Receipts Setting setting. The Oldest Due Date option will be useful if you are using more than one Number Series for Invoice Numbers.
