How To - Handle a write-off

Overview:
How can I handle a write-off ?  We need to write off the difference between the balance due and the payment amount.  

Steps:

1.  If you are linked to General Ledger, go to VIew, Codes, Revenue Codes and chose a revenue code that you want to use for the write-off.   Enter the appropriate General Ledger account number in that code.

2.  The write-off and payment posting are two separate steps.  Both can not be performed in one step.  To write-off the amount, you must do an adjustment.  Select Billing, Receipts/Credits, click on the invoice that needs the adjustment and then click on the Adjust button on the toolbar.  Key in the reason for the adjustment, for example, write-off; key in the amount as a negative, for example, -25.00, then key in your revenue code from step #1.  Save the adjustment, which will decrease the balance due on that invoice.

3.  Post your payment as usual.
