Start Using your AR Refund Batches in Sage 300

How many of you have had to payout a customer for a credit? For example, they gave you a deposit and you are refunding it or you gave them a credit and they want the cash? How many of you are still doing this through Accounts Payable in Sage 300 ERP (Formerly Accpac)? Set the customer up as a vendor, enter the invoice and do an AP Payment batch? Reverse the Credit in AR?

OK, time to stop! Start using the AR Refund Batch feature and print the cheques directly from Accounts Receivable.

The following customer “ABC123” has a credit note outstanding for $275.00.  You are going to issue a cheque for this amount to offset the credit note.

  • In the “Payment Amount” field, enter the amount you are refunding.
