Entering credit invoices or credits

Note: Service Receivables features are available only if you purchased the Service Receivables Add-On Module.

When you apply a credit, Sage 100 Contractor adjusts the invoice and job balance. If the credit has a balance after applying it to an invoice, Sage 100 Contractor assigns the credit status 1-Open, but if the entire amount of the credit is applied, Sage 100 Contractor assigns it status 4-Paid.

Consider the following before entering a credit invoice or credit:

  • When entering cash receipts, you can apply the credit invoice.
  • You can use markups and overrides when entering a new invoice or credit. (See links)(See related topics)
  • You can review the record totals before saving the credit invoice or credit. On the Options menu, click Calculate.
  • You can provide part numbers on an credit invoice. Sage 100 Contractor only includes the parts on the credit invoice, and does not use the part information elsewhere.
  • When you enter a tax district number in the Tax District text box, you can select which items to tax. In the Taxable column, type Yes if the item is taxable or No if the item is non-taxable.
