The payments window is very easy to use. Using the type of payment drop down field you can indicated what kind of payment has been made such as check, cash or credit card. Enter the date of the payment and the amount. If the payment is a check you will also need to enter a check number. You can record multiple transactions as deposits or payments before you actually post the full transaction as an invoice to your receivables. Prior to using the CREATE AR INVOICE button all postings up to this point have only affected your dispatching system database. After using the CREATE AR INVOICE button the entire transaction is posted to your accounting system and the dispatch has been marked as billed.
