Making a Pre-Payment on a Purchase Order in 10X ERP
Prepaying for a purchase order ensures vendors receive payment before goods are delivered. This process involves creating a purchase order, making a payment, receiving the goods, and finalizing the bill.
Steps to Make a Prepayment:
- CREATE a Purchase Order and Publish it.
- NAVIGATE to the Payments section within the PO.
- ADD a Payment for the required amount (e.g., full or partial).
- SELECT the Payment Method (e.g., wire transfer) and Bank Account.
- ENTER any Reference or Memo if needed.
- CONFIRM the payment to record it as a Deposit for the vendor.
Steps to Complete the Purchase Order:
- GO TO the PO Main Page and Receive the Goods.
- PUBLISH the Receiving to confirm the inventory.
- CREATE a Bill for the purchase order amount.
- PUBLISH the Bill to finalize payment processing.
Key Considerations:
- The PO, Receiving, Bill, and Payment should all be Closed upon completion.
- The Vendor AP will reflect the payment under Payments, ensuring no open balance remains.
