This question comes up a lot and I saw it come through our
helpdesk again today so I thought a blog post was in order.
The RM side of Dynamics GP behaves slightly differently to
the PM side in that fully applied payments do not automatically move to history.
The paid transaction removal process needs to be run on the RM side to achieve
this. This also means that once the routine has been run you can not un apply
the now historical invoices within Dynamics GP.
So how do you un apply a historical invoice in receivables management?
You basically have three options.
1.
Down load the Professional services tools library
(PSTL) which is now free from version 10 onwards and use the Receivables
transactions un apply feature. This will
move the records back to open and you
can then re apply them as required.
2.
Post reversing transactions. You would need to
post a credit note for the original invoice and a debit note for the payment. These
will then need to be applied to each other (and sent to history). You will then
need to re enter the original invoice and the payment again and this time apply
appropriately. If you are using the bank
rec module as well, you may need to void any cash receipt separately within
bank rec.
3.
Use the Remove transaction History utility in
Dynamics GP to completely remove the invoice and the payment and re enter them.
I would not really recommend option 3 and have only
mentioned it here to cover all the bases.
With all of these options I would suggest doing it in the
test company first (having restored a back up from your LIVE into it)
I would also recommend doing a back up of your LIVE company
database before doing any of the above options in Live.
