In this tutorial, you will learn how to create a payment using ERP5.
The appropriate way to create a payment
is to first locate in the
invoice
which you want to create the payment transaction from, and then
create the related payment
directly from the invoice sheet.
The payment action works the same way as invoices:
First you have to
create one and edit
the details.
Once this is done properly, you will have to
start the accounting process
for it.
If you have some accounting experience, you know that accounting of invoices and of payments have different meanings.
Both of them are mandatory, but the accounting done for invoices is related to your
merchandise and client accounts
, payment accounting relates to the notion of treasury, and to your
bank account
.
You should understand that ERP5 will not let you create a payment if it is not related to a bank account
, which means that
the first step of this tutorial will be to learn how to create a bank account for your company
in order to be able to create treasury transactions such as payment, which are directly linked to your bank account.
