IMOS - Write Offs

Recommended Setup

  • Revenue/expense write off account

  • Write off bank account: This bank account must be added to the corresponding W Type company in the Address Book. To set this up, follow the steps in Adding a Bank Account.

  2. On the Payment and Receipts form, input the amount received, leaving out the amount to be written off.
    Example: In the following image, the amount to write off will be $5.

  3. Save and close.

Create a New TDE Invoice to Perform the Write Off

  1. Create a new TDE invoice. The new invoice must be to the same customer and of type Receivable.

  2. Input the amount to write off as a negative figure.

  3. On the toolbar, click Save and Post.

Settle the Write Off Invoice
