How to import a CSV file for Customer Receipt allocations

From Season version 19.1 onwards you can now import a csv file to automatically allocate your customer receipts to the correct transactions. See below for details on this.

  1. In the Operations menu, go to Sales Ledger -> Receipts Customer, to bring up the Customer Receipt Entry program.
  2. Enter the Lodgement detail and select the customer this allocation will be for, and enter the amount received
  3. Select the ‘Manual’ button at the bottom of the screen – this will show any outstanding invoices on the customers account.
  4. At the bottom of the Manual Allocation screen there is an ‘Import File’ button.

 

  1. The import file button will allow you to select a file containing customer payments – click on ‘Browse file to import’
  2. Once you have selected your file, click on the ‘Click to check data’ button – this will check that the data is in the correct format to be imported. 
  3. You will be asked to confirm the import, click ‘Yes’
  4. If there are any errors, the file will not import, and a screen will appear showing what the errors are – hovering over the field highlighted red, will give you more information on the error.
  5. Once the file has imported successfully, the payments should be allocated correctly, and you can save the allocation.
