Using A/R

The primary function of the accounts receivable application is posting customer payments. Other functions of the accounts receivable application include correcting a customer's discount amount, changing a purchase order number, and making adjustments. Remember, however, there should be few manual adjustments and manual postings, because the application is designed to post accounts with the correct figures. Nevertheless, human error does exist, and you may need to make a manual entry because a payment was applied to the wrong invoice.

To use theDDMSA/R application, follow the steps below:

1. StartDDMSby double-clicking the icon on your desktop.
   
   
2. In theDDMSLogin window, the cursor appears in the User ID box. Type 101 and click OK. (You do not need a password.)

The number 101 is a salesperson number we preset when building your system. During the Let's Get Started program, you create a salesperson database. After you do this, each user has a unique number. You also have the option of assigning passwords for each user. For more information, see Salesperson Database.

3. In the eNsite Pro Master Menu, select the Accounts Receivable application by double-clicking the icon.
   
   
4. For more information on the tabs in the Accounts Receivable application, refer to In the Accounts Receivable Payments Tab, In the Accounts Receivable Post/Change Tab, and In the Accounts Receivable Batch Totals Tab.
   
   First, we will learn how to post payments.
