In Sage 100, when you record Paid AR/SO Invoices, you have to enter in the Invoice and post it. Then you have to enter in a cash receipt and post it. This creates 2 separate transactions to record PAID Invoices. If you have 50 transactions, now you have 100 transactions to enter into the system.

In the Sage 100 AP Module, there is Manual Check Entry where you can enter a PAID AP Invoice in one transaction. Why isn't this available for AR or SO?

Benefits:
1. It will save time.
2. Many companies use other systems to record Invoices and they get cash receipts in that system such as POS. They only need to record the Paid Invoices in Sage 100 in one step. They do not want to have 2 transactions or 2 imports. They also do not want to post twice. This type of transaction is already available in other Accounting systems. Sage 100 needs to incorporate this.
3. It will make integrations with 3rd party apps easier.
4. If you enter the Invoice and the Amount Paid at the same time, it could potentially make deposits easier to do and you could print PAID Invoices when entering the transaction.
5. You could potentially use this as a POS workaround as well.
