Hello all,

I have a list of bills that have been imported into migration mode, as I dont want the GL to be impacted upon release of bills but I want the payments to be recorded against these bills and that the payments should be impacted in the ledger. How to do so?

 

Thanks.

HI ​@Harry 

You would turn Migration Mode on for the Payment just like you would for the Bill. 

The following types of documents can be entered when migration mode has been activated for the accounts receivable subledger:

  • InvoiceDebit Memo, and Credit Memo
  • PaymentPrepayment, and Refund
  • Cash Sale and Cash Return

So one option you would have is to enter the value of the total bill $10,000 in extended cost in the detail section and then “migrated balance” of $7,000, meaning there has been a $3,000 payment. 

 

Option two would be to follow the same steps above but also create an apply an AP payment against the bill. AP payments entered in migration mode do not decrease bill balances AND they do not hit the GL so they are really “information only”. But if your client really wants this paper trail that would be the way to do it.
