Reconciliation process

Reconciliation is the process of using a positive balance to pay for unpaid invoices. Through Blue Chameleon, this is achieved from the View Account Page for... by clicking on the invoice to be used ; something which can attained in two ways :

  • either through Image s_Client_payments / Image z_View_account / [Client Search] balance amount ;
  • or through through Image s_Client_payments / Image z_Reconcile_payment_credit_note / [Client Search] Client Name.

Either way, as the aimed invoice is clicked, a Image z_Reconcile button becomes available :

Next, upon click on Image z_Reconcile, a screen with three parts appears as illustrated below :

  • a panel (A) where a list of available payments appears ;
  • below, a panel (B) where the clicked invoice details appear ;
  • on the right, a panel (C) displaying the details of the payments as clicked in Panel A.

The process shown is as follows : a payment is clicked in panel A, then appears in Panel C ; if it is fine, a checkbox appears in front of the purchased articles (Panel B). It is ticked, and the Image z_Validate button is finally clicked to register the reconciliation.

The successful result of this reconciliation can then be checked on the View Account Page, by clicking on the payment : in this example, it is well seen that this 100.00 payment has been used to pay for (initially) a 68.00 invoice, then, during this reconciliation, for a 29.00 invoice :
