Instead of having so many journal entries, it would be great to be able to receive non-a/r payments and receive payments against vendor credits. You can't track (see invoices) for journal entries.

I get the error message when I try to select vendors to pay. Our accounting department had to delete our money market account so that I could pay vendors. I went back to the old way of doing journal entries.
Like Jennifer, I haven't had any issues with A/P checks but again, like Jennifer, we don't get many. Just a thought/question: does the problem occur when there is an unposted Misc Cash Receipt or at any time?
I haven't had any issues with it messing up anything else, but I haven't used it much either, we rarely get Misc Cash.
An error message comes up “Cash Account…..when generating checks.” I can’t remember the exact wording but our accounting department had to delete our Money Market Account from the bank. I have to make Journal Entries again.
Christina,
How does it mess up A/P checks?
Thanks,
Janice
Yes there is a Miscellaneous Cash Receipts but when you turn it on, it messes up running A/P checks. It is not a good functioning system.
Bob,
I can't understand why they would have it set to No Access!
Thank you soooo much for your help :)
Janice
I believe it was in version 3.6 that this feature was (finally) added. Unfortunately, one still cannot apply vendor refunds to their transactions. I believe one has to go into Administration\Security\ and then either User or User Group. Under the Task Group "Customers" there is a line for "Enter Misc Cash Receipts" that has to be set to "Full Access". If I remember correctly the new feature was set to "No Access" as the default for everybody.
Jennifer,
I have full access and I do not see anywhere that this function can be "turned on". Can you give me the steps to help me see where I am missing it?
Thank you,
Janice
There is a function to receive Miscellaneous Cash Receipts in PC, but you have to turn on the security in Administration to see it.
I agree 100% Janice!
I also think we should be able to receive miscellaneous payments without doing a journal entry. American Contractor had this function and it was so easy. You could also do miscellaneous payments without having to open 5 tabs.... I truly feel like the accounting side of Procontractor is a waste of time.
