Tips and Tricks

• Setup => Attach Document to attach documents to an existing GL Journal entry.
• Forum Post - Bad Debts Write Off
• For large Inquiry (GL) or reports, increase the Ajax Time out from the default 10000 milliseconds to 20000 or more.

Batch Entry

• Normal FA Real Time Posting in GL and Journal is when the SAVE button is pressed.
• Batch method should print registers and check the batch of transactions before posting them to the journals. The workaround in FA to do this is:
  • Take backup
  • Do real time batch import
  • Check the registers and printouts
  • If found to need major record level corrections, then edit in the import source file
  • Restore from earlier backup
  • Re-import after corrections.

Item descriptions are not saved when transferring to GL

• When one issues an invoice with multiple items in it, the description line is not used when printing the GL Account Transactions report.
• The Item descriptions are not saved when transferring to GL.
• There is not enough room for this on the transaction line.

Add credit card as bank account

• Go to Chart of Accounts → Add New Account.
• Choose Account Type: Current Liabilities and create a unique account code.
• Then, navigate to Banking → Bank Accounts → Add New Account.
• Select that same account under “GL Account Linked to This Bank.”

That should let you record supplier payments made via credit card while still reconciling it like a bank account.
