How to hande Payments made in advance?
Hi Gurus!
I need to migrate some detail for refundable security deposits. What is the best way to do so?
My approach was to upload summary level balance, then upload the details via a vendor prepayment template, and then reverse the summary level balance. However, I don't have a template and I wanted to desing one based on the vendor prepayment entry form.
It looks like I need to set up the vendor prepayment account at Accounting Preferences / AP / Vendor Prepayment Account. However, I can't choose regular COA accounts there and the closest one it offers is the system account called Advances Paid. This means that the deposit detail will sit in this system account and the summary balance initially needs to be uploaded to this account.
