[GNC] Posting a bad debt

[rmomxtx at gmail.com]

Adrien,

 

Thanks for this. I'll keep it and see if I can make it work.

 

I responded to your first post in this thread before I read through the
entire thread. Please disregard. You answered it here. My bad.  On occasion
I forget and send these in via another email address. When it bounces there
is an option to cancel the request. Is there a way to do that when I use the
correct address? I'd withdraw that last email if I knew how.

 

Thanks,

Roger

Roger,

 

My apologies for any time wasted. I use my sub-account with manual entries.
I see now the business features will not expose them in that payment drop
down, regardless of type. (but you can use those asset (not A/R) accounts
from the business features in line-items in bills/invoices as this is what I
do. You can do the same with `other A/P`.) I first set this up using 2.6.17,
and I see it still works the same in 3.5, so there is no version issue.

 

For you, I?d say the liability account is the way to go.

 

Overall, it would be a nice RFE for the business features to have a function
to charge-off a bad debt or more easily handle B2B trade type scenarios.

 

Regards,

Adrien
