Qustion 1: How do I increase the stock quantity of an existing item in SI?

Answer  1:

How:

Question 2: “Why can’t I see individual statements?”

Answer 2:

You are likely using Paid By, which consolidates all activity under one entity.

Use Consolidate GL if individual statements are required.

 

Question 3: How do I capture one payment for many customers.

Answer 3:

Use Customer Journals → New Payment Received and enable Consolidate GL.

 

Question 4: “When should I use Paid By?”

Answer 4:

Use it when a head office pays on behalf of you and only one statement is required.

 

   

Question 5: Why does the General Ledger (GL) show zero while the Balance Sheet shows a balance?

Answer 5:

1.Posting Periods / Date Range: An entry may be future dated, so the GL inquiry shows the balance (including the future dated transaction) while the balance sheet (which is cumulative) reflects the balance only to the date specified.

2.Branch-specific posting: The entry may have been booked under a different branch code, so the GL inquiry for one branch shows zero, but the consolidated balance sheet shows the balance.
