Payment demand document

Learn how to create a payment demand from a partner's unpaid invoices, and how to save, close and download it.

Feature overview

On the payment demand document you prepare a demand for the invoices a partner has not yet paid. You select the partner and add the invoices as items, and the system shows the net, VAT and gross values and the late payment interest. You create a new document under Main menu / Cash register / Payment demand / New, and you open an existing one from Main menu / Cash register / Payment demand / List with the Open button.

Above the document there are three tabs and a link:

  • Actions: save, close, delete and download.
  • Additional functions: sent items, new email, new partner, new task and partner card.
  • View and layout: access to the Interface and behavior settings.
  • CRM: opens the CRM panel of the document.

Below the document there are further tabs: Items, Customer comment, Internal comment, Settings, Related documents, Tasks, Files and Custom fields. The amount on the printed demand is the sum of the gross value of the invoices, the late payment interest and the collection cost.

Step by step

1. Filling in the header, saving and closing

Start with the Partner company name field (required): while you type, the system suggests partners. The buttons next to the field open the data sheet of the selected partner or let you create a new partner. From the Partner contact person list you pick the contact of the partner, and you can add a new contact next to it. Enter the Performance date (required) and, if needed, change the Collection cost. Document number, Status and Document date cannot be edited. Save saves the data; the arrow next to it also offers Save and close. Close finalizes the document, and the arrow offers Close and print and Close and download. Use Delete to delete the document. The Download menu offers CSV, XLSX, PDF and PDF preview: PDF and CSV are available after closing, while XLSX and the PDF preview also work for a draft.

2. Additional functions

On the Additional functions tab, Sent items shows the emails belonging to the document, and from the New email menu you can write a message with the External mail client or the Internal mail client. New partner opens the creation of a partner in a new browser tab, New task records a task for the document, and Partner card shows the card of the selected partner.

3. Adding items

On the Items tab, use New to add an invoice to the demand; this only works for a draft. Select a partner first, otherwise the system tells you that a partner must be chosen. In the window you choose one of the partner's invoices that are not yet settled; after you select it, its net, VAT and gross values and its due date are filled in automatically. Add adds the item and Close closes the window. After selecting a row you can remove the item with Delete. Below the items the system totals the Net value, VAT value, Gross value and Late payment interest.
