Ability to Mark an A/R Invoice as Disputed
A new feature is available in Cash
Posting and Analysis windows such as available in Customer Inquiry and the
Credit Management Work Center that will allow marking an invoice as “Disputed”
by the customer.
Disputed invoices will be treated differently in
some aspects by many programs.
You can mark invoices as Disputed in Cash Posting by using
the option off the right-click menu or the Apply pull-down menu bar with the
desired invoice high-lighted
Likewise, you can mark invoices as Disputed by right-clicking on a high-lighted
invoice in Analysis tabs and windows in programs such as Customer Inquiry and
the Credit Management Work Center.
nvoices can be removed from a Disputed status using the same right-click or
pull-down menu bar options and also by clicking on the Disputed icon
that
is displayed in front of an invoice amount that has previously been marked as
Disputed.
A convenient Invoice Notes button is provided in the Dispute confirmation window
to allow easily adding notes as to why an invoice is being disputed if needed
Disputed invoices will not be considered in credit control calculations
including not being considered past due even if they would be otherwise and not
counting against available credit and credit limits
Disputed invoices will be listed along with Deferred amounts on Ageing Reports
due to lack of room for a separate dedicated column.
However they will be flagged with a question mark symbol following their
invoice number “?” similar to how Deferred invoices are flagged with a “D”
following their invoice number to indicate the Disputed status of the invoice
Disputed invoice totals will be shown separately from other ageing categories in
Customer Inquiry, Credit Information window, and several of the Credit
Management Work Center tabs including the Hot List tab, Customer Aging tab, and
the Customer Payment History tab.
This feature is enabled by default but can be controlled
both at a system-wide level and an individual user level.
A Standard Accounts Receivable option (# 30) allows disabling or enabling
it on a system-wide basis. Then a
User Profile option (#19) can be used to override the system configured option
on a per-user basis to allow you to fine tune who all can flag or un-flag
invoices as disputed.
