Sometimes monies received are not applied to an invoice. For example, some distributors are paid rebate checks from their suppliers. Nabisco may give a 1% rebate on all sales. When this check is received from Nabisco, there are no invoices to which it can be applied, because it was never an accounts receivable item. Enabling this option will allow users to post payments in Cash Receipts by Customer, that are not applied to an invoice that exists in the accounts receivable file.

 

•This feature is typically used by distributors that receive monies for rebates, or other payments that are not directly tied to the sales of products sold.

 

•The general ledger account to post the monies to must be specified when posting a non-AR receipt. An optional reference may also be attached to the posting.

 

Non-AR receipts will not be printed on the Cash Receipts report.

 

•The Deposit Slip report does have an option to list the non-AR receipts. The reference of the non-AR receipt will be displayed in the Non-AR Reference column.
