Business value

The prepayment sales invoice feature streamlines the invoicing process for customers who make prepayments (advance payments). It helps businesses manage their cash flow more effectively by accurately recording and tracking prepayments. Overall, the prepayment sales invoice optimizes financial operations, increases efficiency, reduces risk, and contributes to the overall success of the business.

Feature details

The prepayment invoice feature provides an option to issue an invoice against prepayment sales order lines. Payment is collected against a prepayment invoice before delivery of goods or services. Ultimately, the prepayment invoice is reconciled and settled with the final invoice. This makes sure that all payments are posted against an invoice.
