Return of Advances/Prepayments to Vendors/Suppliers

edited Dec 23, 2019 11:04PM in Accounting / ERP

Net Suite's limitations in handling prepayments to Vendors is well known (with the work around offered through Vendor Bill Credit to reflect the correct accounting balance).

Occasionally, a vendor is obliged to return the Prepayment(s) made. Normally, they are debited to Bank and credited to Vendor and again I find NS does not have the way to reflect refunds from Vendor. The amount deposited is not reflected in the A/P Register (customized to reflect Vendor's transactions) or even in a Transaction search filtered for this specific vendor. In other words , NS assumes only payments made to Vendor for accounting not any payments received from him.

Howdy, Stranger!
