Sage 100

"When you're using Sales Order you should NOT be doing invoicing out of AR."  I have people that do their CM sometimes in AR, but I always try to keep them away from it if they use SO.  The same Misc codes they use in AR can be used in SO, so I don't see the point.  What advantage do they think there is in doing it in AR?

@Beth Bowers The only "reason" I could get for wanting to enter a Credit Memo in AR was "That's where you do it in QuickBooks, Peachtree, etc. etc." He was upset that SAGE 100 has a "bug" because when he tried to enter the Credit Memo in AR, he received the "error" below.  The Next invoice number in the AR counter was an existing invoice number in Sales Order.

Oh, @Michael McDonald - you're gonna have fun with that one.

Yeah... present it properly (i.e. SO is sooooo much better than AR for entering invoices...), and you can bypass a lot of BKAC issues.

"But in (old system ABC) I did it this way."

"Well, Sage 100 is not old system ABC, and this way is better."

AKA: fudge it!
