Payment made prior to Invoice being received
...
- Open Creditors > Transactions > Payments > Payments
- Enter the Invoice No, Date of invoice and due date of the invoice
- Enter the FX amount payable in the Foreign Currency Trans. column for both invoices
When paying FX creditors, the FX rate will not be the rate listed in the Jiwa FX Currency form ( System Settings > Foreign Exchange > Currencies ) as the bank doing the transfer will provide a spot rate or you may have purchased foreign currency earlier.
Once the FX amount has been entered, change the FX Rate to be as follows:
In this example, say we paid $AU 39,050 to pay the $US 30,000 purchase invoice liability. The FX Rate would be 0.768245839.
It has cost $AUD 73,538.85 to discharge both USD liabilities of $USD 63,000. Enter the trans amounts as follows:
- For Woo Sun, the AUD amount is 73,538.85 X 33,000 / 63,000 which is 38,520.35
- For Woo Dragon, the AUD amount is 73,538.85 X 30,000 / 63,000 which is 35,018.50
The payment will then need to be allocated to the invoices on each Creditors > Maintenance > Transactions tab when the invoices are processed. Allocation can be made on the basis of FX amounts due.
