Sometimes the vendor may send us a check instead of a credit. We need to be able to apply the check to something in the sales system for recording that. The process for this would be to view your credits for the vendor. Then Select the ‘Scale’ action icon.
(If your credit does not show a scale icon, you must create an a/r account for this Vendor under Vendor List before proceeding. )
After clicking the scale icon, the Accounts receivable Take payment will show for you to confirm the transfer to this a/r account. You need to process payment here.
Now you can go into the a/r aging and take payment. The credit will be removed from the a/p entry screen.
