Early Payment Discounts

I receive supplier early payment discounts and wish to know how best to record them. The only way seems to be credit notes which is not correct. Please can you help? Thank you Sarah

We have a help page available on offering early payment discounts to
customers here:
http://www.solaraccounts.co.uk/help/how-to-record-an-early-payment-discount.php

For supplier discounts, you create a Purchase Invoice instead of an
Invoice, and a Purchase Credit Note instead of a Credit Note.

As you can see, this method involves use of a purchase credit note.
I'm concerned that you don't regard this method as appropriate. If
this is the case, can you tell me why?

Hi Mark

That is absolutely fine - I just wondered if there was an easier method ut this is OK. Thank you for your help. With regards to the remittance advice would this be something that could be considered for a future release of the software?

You're welcome. Yes, a few people have requested that receipts can be
printable so this is something we are likely to add. However we can't
make promised about future versions of Solar Accounts.
