Hi
You cannot apply a Deposit of 10000 partially to the open Invoice.

Hi,

In case you have received the USD 10,000 against a particular customer as deposit, you can treat it as adhoc receipt from the customer. Then when you raise a customer invoice for USD 20,000, you can apply the adhoc receipt (partially or fully) against the invoice.
in case you want to refund the ad-hoc receipt, you need to close out the receipt with a credit note in favor of the customer.
Then in AP raise a standard invoice against the supplier (the customer now needs to be defined as a supplier) and pay the customer as refund of deposit.

hope this helps

Hi Sudhir,

Here I have one clarification.

You said raise a standard Invoice in AP to make the refund to the customer. When you raise this as std invoice in AP where will you charge this ( I mean which GL account ).

Hi,

Prepayment functinality you can use in the Order managment.
Suppose your customer paid some amount of money while creating an order. in this situation you can do the advance payment.
Here system will create one receiptf or that amount ikn AR aitomatically then once invoice reached into AR, reciept will apply automatically.

Hi leedo

I think the best way you can use it like Rasinti say. use the order management to make a prepayment for the customer & after you make the invoice, the prepayment apply automatically with this receipt.

Thanks
