Sales or purchases where no single customer or supplier linkage is appropriate
Agree
An example of a journal entry where sale / purchase must be set different to credit / debit status but there is no single supplier Private vehicle use - worked example
Entering a Counter trade or Recipient-created tax invoice using Managers invoice facility
I’m not sure how this this solution solves the equivalent problem for invoices. If counter trade functionality is vital for cash transactions, then surely it is even more important for invoice transactions in an accounting package optimized for accrual based accounting. An example of Counter trade / Recipient-created tax invoices required when generating an invoice in Manager Negative invoiced amounts missing from GST (tax) reports
Default sale / purchase assignment for the entire Payment or Receipt
If barter transactions / Counter trade / Recipient-created tax invoices really need the ability to link to an unlimited number of customers and suppliers, then please make the default
-
Receipt: all line items tax is of type sales (independent of the sign of the line item amount), and can be linked to a single customer if desired
-
Payment: all line items tax is of type purchase (independent of the sign of the line item amount), and can be linked to a single supplier if desired
-
Doing so maintains consistency between cash transactions and invoice transaction
For barter transactions / Counter trade / Recipient-created tax invoices have the option to allow:
-
sale / purchase to be set at the line item level
-
Supplier / customer to be set at the line item level
-
For old data sale / purchase will be as desired when supplier / customer are added (which must be done manually). Sale / purchase flag could only be set by and upgrade script if a sale / purchase flag existed independently of the customer / supplier linkage.
