Entering an A/R Payment to be Reapplied

On the A/R Quick Payment Application form, select Actions > New.

Select the customer number, and enter the check number that matches the open payment you want to reapply.

The system fills the G/L Reference field with the description "Re-Application of Open Payment/Credit".

Change the G/L Reference and Description fields, if necessary.

Note: Do not change the Receipt Date when reapplying open credits, since no journal entries are created. This keeps the credit memo date on the aging in line with the date it was posted to the General Ledger.

Select Actions > Save.

Note: You must perform this step before you can select transactions in the grid at the bottom of the form.

Select the Selected column of each transaction you want to apply the payment to.

Select Apply.

The system updates the payment with the new invoice number, and journal entries are posted for the reapplication.

The journal entries have a reference of ARPR (payment or credit reapplication).
