ACCPAC Adjustment

[kongming1]

1. I am using Accpac 4.1A, When make GST remittance, I can not enter a negative amount of the GST Paid on Purchase, so anyone tell that how to handle this GST Remittance?

2. I have posted the entry in A/P Module, and this has created a AP subleger batch in G/L Batch list. Since I have found the error in the entry, then I have deleted the AP subledger in G/L, but how can I correct in A/P module for this error in AP module?

Thanks.

1. Credit note
2. You shouldn't have deleted the GL batch, now you've disconnected AP and GL. When you do the credit note, make sure you delete that batch, too.

Dear Jay,

Thanks for your reply.

1. The problem is that Receiver General is not a vendor entered in my vendor record, since I use miscellaneous payment type when make the remittance. So if I tried to enter a credit note in invoice batch list, the system will ask me the vendor number etc. that is the problem.

2. Still would you please instruct how I can make the remittance since 4.1 not allow me to enter a negative amount for the GST Paid on Purchase.

Thanks.

I have no idea. None of my clients use version 4.1 anymore.

Hi Jay,

Supposed we are now using Version 5.0, still how can I fix the problem? I mean that Receiver General is not a vendor in our vendor records,however, when I try to enter Credit note, there always need a Vendor Number.

Thanks for your kind help.

I still don't know the answer. None of my clients use GST.

I assume you are doing a misc AP payment, this does not need an AP vendor. If you want to do a return then us AR misc receipt.

Hi Ettienne,

Yes, I have made a misc AP Payment for the remittance of GST, however, I found this payment need to be corrected, so How can I make the reversing in A/P?

Thanks for your ideas.

 

[ettienne]

You cannot in AP, reverse the check or do a misc receipt in AR.

I am using AccPac 4.1A. Anyone can tell me how I can made GST Remittance under this version? (It is easier to made remittance under 5.0), but under AccPac 4.1A, I have a problem to made the remittance. Anyone any ideas? thks.

 

[ettienne]

It's the same in both versions. What problems are you having and what have tried so far?

Hi Ettienne,

My problem is when I try to remit the GST in Payment Batch List, select the trans.type: Misc.Payment to pay to Receiver General, I need to enter the amount of G/L account "GST Charged on Sales", and in the second line "GST Paid on Purchase". However, in 4.1 Version, I can not enter the "GST Paid on Purchase" as a negtive number. (I try in 5.0 version, which can be allowed to enter a negative number for the GST Paid on Puchase and then to offset the GST Charged on Sales. So, what should I do?Thanks.

Enter the net check amount and do a GL journal entry between the 2 GST accounts, or upgrade to a newer version of Accpac.

Hi Ettienne,

If i enter the net check amount and do a GL journal entry, the payment amount is not shown on the Reconciliation Status report, this will make the reconciliation a problem.

The payment amount and net check amount are the same thing, how can they be different?
