Account History

 

 

customer_history

 

This view lists all the jobs, invoices, credit notes, credits and debits that have been entered into the customer's account since the account was created.

 

Items, by default, are listed in date order with the oldest at the top of the list. Jobs that are booked in or on hold are shown at the very bottom of the list.

 

The Description indicates the type of transaction on that row... eg. INV invoice, CRD credit note, SR sales receipt, JD journal debit.

Credit transactions, other than credit notes, will have a currency symbol displayed to their right to make them easily visible.

 

The Amount column can include a coloured bubble to indicate if that row's credit has either been allocated (for credit notes, payments etc.) or has been "paid" (for invoices, debits etc.)

 

Symbol

When on a credit row

When on a debit row

No symbol

The credit hasn't been allocated against anything. This will show as an unallocated credit on the Aged Debtors report, or Surgeon Aged statement.

No credit has been applied to this debit yet. ie. For an invoice, this invoice has yet to be paid

partial_allocation

The credit has been partially allocated against some debits. However, this is still a portion of the credit that remains unallocated and this will show on the Aged Debtors and Surgeon Aged statements as unallocated credit.

eg. With a £100 credit, £60 could have been allocated to an invoice, but £40 is still left unallocated.

Some credit has been applied to this debit. ie. For an invoice, this invoice has been partially paid.

full_allocation

This credit has been fully allocated.

The debit has been fully paid off.

 

 

The Balance column shows the running balance on the account.

 

The Note column shows any notes associated with the transaction.

 

 

 

Account History (Advanced)

 

This view is similar to the Account History view above, except rather than showing coloured bubbles to indicate credit allocations, the Unpaid proportion of a transaction is shown as a value.

 

 

 

 

Account History (Unpaid)

 

This view is similar to the Account History (Advanced) view above, in that it shows the Unpaid proportion of each transaction. However, fully paid/allocated transactions are not shown in this view - only credits that are not fully allocated, and debits that are not fully paid off.

 

 

 

 

Active Jobs - All

 

Only booked in and on-hold jobs are shown in this view.
