Importing Initial Customer Balance

Reference No: 25617

(V 02.00.16-00)

Importing Initial Customer Balance from Previous Application

Details

In CR2, the Initial Balance of Customers can be carried forward from the previous application, by importing their unpaid Invoices.

  • This will in turn affect  the Credit Available for the Customer.

  • These unpaid invoices have to be paid off in full to regain the blocked credit.

  • These invoices cannot be processed in any other way in the application other than receiving payments against them. For example, they can't be printed, exported out, cancelled and so on.

  • To import unpaid invoices from the previous application to CR2, please refer Cr2DataConversionReadMe.doc within the sqls.zip file.

  • The application won't restrict you for importing paid invoices, as well, from the previous application.

  • Payments can be received against these invoices by selecting the appropriate tab delimited file in Import Payment Details dialog box (accessed by clicking Invoicing > Import Invoice Payment Details icon) and choosing the following options, as shown in Figure 1.0. The column details of the tab delimited Payment Details File is provided in Table 1.0.

  • Update = Invoice Balance/Customer Payments radio button.

  • Type = Great Plains.
