The receipt information area is where you tell entrée how much to apply to the current account. You can also specify whether you are applying a payment, credit memo, discount, a non-AR receipt, or a write off.

 

 

 

Receipt Amount

Enter the dollar amount of the receipt that you received from the vendor.

 

Check Number

Enter a unique check or reference number for the vendor's payment in this field. If the vendor paid you with cash you could enter "CASH" followed by the date they paid you. (e.g., CASH112414 for cash received on November 24, 2014).

 

It is important to enter a unique number for reporting purposes. Should the payment need to be canceled later you will need the reference number.

Batch Total

The total of all receipts for this batch number will display here. It is automatically updated as you apply receipts. This field is informational only and cannot be edited.
