Understanding Sales Order Deposits
When you enter a deposit on a Sales Order, you also must record the deposit through Accounts Receivable Cash Receipts Entry. Because the invoice does not exist yet, enter a GL account (your customer deposit account) and during the update, the appropriate cash account (determined by the Bank Code) is debited and the customer deposit account is credited.
When the SO Invoice is updated, the invoice total is reduced by the deposit amount, the customer deposit account is debited and your receivables account is credited.
At any given time, the balance of the customer deposit account provides an important audit trail of the total outstanding deposits (deposits received for sales orders that are not invoiced).
