The quickest way to enter new vouchers is to utilize the memorized voucher system by clicking on the Memorized tab.
The fields are further defined:
Field |
Description |
Vendor |
Select the name of the vendor from the drop-down list. |
Memorized Name |
Enter a generic voucher name (i.e.: gas bill, electric bill). |
Amount |
Enter the payment amount.
|
Payment |
Select the payment method.
|
Type |
Select a payment type from the four options:
Auto: Used to process a voucher without printing a check, primarily used if auto payment is setup with a vendor.
Manual: Represents a payment submitted via pre-printed check and allows the user to enter the check number.
Payment: Issues a check through VMS using a check number fed from the G/L chart of accounts (check-stock and MICR ink required).
|
Bank |
Select from a drop-down list of available banking accounts (defined in Setup/Property Setup/Accounting/GL Chart of Accounts).
|
Memo |
Enter memos to be printed on the voucher.
|
Reference |
Enter the check reference number to determine if the number has been used for another voucher for the selected vendor. |
Check # |
Enter the check number only if processing a manual check. |
If the entered voucher can be used in the future to pay the same vendor, the user can "memorize" the voucher by selecting the voucher and right-clicking on the highlighted row. |
The process of creating a memorized entry is similar to creating a voucher for payment.
1. | Select a property. |
2. | Click in the Vendor cell of the maintenance grid and select a vendor. |
3. | Click in the Bank cell of the maintenance grid and select the bank account out of which the check will be written. |
4. | Enter the necessary information into the grid for the new memorized voucher. |
