Customer Receipts

Receipts:

A receipt is a proof of the set of amounts that are paid by agreement between the two parties without allocating the amount to a specific service or product, and keeping it with one of the parties by issuing a new receipt, whether it is for sales or purchases until it is needed.

“Receipts” appear in the drop-down list within the “Sales” and “Purchases” invoices. On the receipts page, you can find all the receipts that were created on entries with the property of adding new receipts.

The importance of receipts to the organization-customer relationship:

For example, one of the contracting organizations agreed with the customer on an approximate amount for the services provided because the total cost could not be clarified until after the completion of the work. In this case, the customer submits a receipt to the organization with the approximate amount, for example 20,000. After completing the service, the company has allocated this receipt to several costs and invoices related to that service. If there remains a surplus of the payment provided by the customer, they will be disposed of according to the agreement between the customer and the organization to return the rest of the amount to the customer or keep it with the organization until the need for another service.
