HEAD OFFICE PAYMENT

I deal with a number of chains and some of them like to send me one cheque that pays invoices from different stores.

Is there anyway, in 'Receive Payment' that I can apply a cheque to 2 different customers OR is there somway that I can connect groups of customers that are part of a chain to accomdate this.

I think I may have posted a Q similar to this before and not gotten anywhere, so I thought I'd try again.

The only way I've been able to do it is apply partial payment (with a note to that effect) to each invoice directly, but that screws up my ability to use discounts and propper cash flow timing.

Thx,

A

Depending on your version you could also set them up all as one customer, with multiple ship-to addresses with each ship-to being a separate store. I have found this much better to work with than the Job for each since moving to QB2006 Prem: M &W. I used to use one Job for each branch under a main customer method. However, if you ever deal with credits with your customers, it gets a little messy. Trying to apply credits for one of the branches when deducted off of a check/payment from which no payments were received from that particular branch, doesn't work very well with the one job per branch method. If you never get returns/credits however, it would probably work great for you.

That was a wordy mess, hope you understood that.

that sounds good. I'll give that a shot, as basically that is exactly what I have; 1 cust, multi shipping locations

if you set up the customers as Jobs of a main customer, its very easy. I do this all the time. Say Nynex is a customer of mine but i am doing several projects for them. I invoice each project under its own identification #. When i receive the check, i go to Nynex and all the jobs are listed. You have to have about version 2004 or better i think. It definitly(sic?) was not available on earlier versions
