With new fall 2018 new feature we can now issue an invoice into parts. A customer can put a deposit down and partially pay for a total.
What I found: On our Janurary End of Month my account said we have unaccounted for extra money in our bank account. The Reason: There is no reporting on the sales report of this money whatsoever for deposits paid to partially pay an invoice.
To elaborate: If i issue a $1000 invoice with two payments, $500 due now and $500 due in 6 months when the client pays the $500 the invoice now shows in invoicing as "partially paid" . The $500 is then deposit on our next deposit into our bank. There is NO RECORD under the sales reporting of this $500. The only record is the deposit report which gives a daily grand total, does not break out what invoices are in that deposit or transaction #'s What if i had (10) $500 deposits paid that day? I'd have no way to break out which was paid. The only to know the source of that $500 in my bank account is to actually look in invoices, find the "partially paid" invoice by clicking each one to find the correct one. What we do get is the deposit paid email which is what we are currently using to record that $500 to our accounting.
What would be helpful: Adding a line to the sales report stating deposit paid so on a monthly/daily sales report i know how much total amounts of deposits are paid so we can reconcile properly to match the deposits going in.
