3.2. Posting Invoices

Next we will post the invoice. Remember, we could have posted it on the Print Invoices screen. But we decided to reserve invoice posting as a separate operation. Smaller businesses might wish to post the invoice directly from the Print Invoices screen. However, many larger businesses like to have this step broken out as a control point. In fact, posting invoices is often the job of someone completely different.

To post the invoice, follow these steps:

  1. Go to Accounting > Accounts Receivable > Workbench.

  2. Instead of the All Customers option, use the Select option.

  3. Enter the "TTOYS" customer number.

  4. Select QUERY.

  5. Right-click on the unposted invoice.

  6. Select the Post option, as shown below:

After selecting the Post option, you'll need to follow these steps:

  1. You will be presented with the Get G/L Distribution Date screen where you should use the defaults and click the CONTINUE button

  2. The invoice is now associated with the customer's receivables
