Overview

• The number of Vendor Accounts you may establish is unlimited as are the number of transactions.
• Payment terms are user definable on a Vendor level.
• On screen vendor account inquiries include pop-up window selection of vendor accounts for viewing, editing and entry of payables.
• Vendor Payment and Early Discount Terms may be specified for each Vendor. On entry of a payable, the Accounts Payable program will calculate the payment due and term discount due (early payment) dates based on this information. Both Payment Due Date and Discount Cut-off Date may be overridden at time of entry, or changed, after posting of the payable. There is no need to access each vendor's invoice to activate the early discount calculations. When checks are printed with a user specified check date before or equal the early payment due date, the program will automatically deduct any early payment discounts available.
• The term discount calculation is based on the check date specified when presented with the print checks menu, and occurs regardless of the actual date the checks are printed.
• Accounts Payable Term Discounts may be calculated on amounts before or after taxes.
• Check printing software. Prints checks based on user selectable payable due dates. Override vendor or payable details as required or place vendor on hold.
• Individual general ledger accounts payable control accounts may be established for each vendor to handle foreign accounts and multiple bank accounts.
• Payables may be charged to a job (or an unlimited number of jobs) with full control over where costs are posted in the general ledger.
• Interfacing with the optional General Ledger and Job Costing modules is automatic if installed and requires no additional setup.
