Receipt & Adjustment Entry
  • Field Defaults and Settings
    These options affect the

    Receipts & Adjustments
    Entry
    tab.
    You can customize how to keep track of your receipts with the
    Default Control Date
    and
    Default Date
    dropdowns.
    The Date field refers to each individual payment, such as the day the firm received a payment.
    A control date is a way to get a number of individual receipt or adjustment transactions into a logical group.
    Your firm can choose whether a particular control date represents a single day, or whether multiple days are entered into a single control date. A commonly used technique is that a control date represents a specific bank deposit, and each receipt deposited in that batch will be entered into the same control date. The control date, however, is not ever used to determine which date (and therefore period) that a receipt is posted to.
  • You can also select either to hide and/or skip when tabbing to other entry fields.
