Enter General Supplier Offset Information

Explanation

Use this activity to enter general information used in a supplier offset transaction. This information might include the payment date, voucher date, user group, voucher type, payment currency, or cash amount.

You can make offsets between supplier debit and credit invoices, as well as between payments on account, payments in advance, and invoices. Parked payments can also be offset. The offset function does not cause any cash flows in the cash accounts, and the total amount must always be zero (0). No voucher is created.

Prerequisites

This activity requires that there be transactions against which to make offsets.

System Effects

There are no system effects until the information in the Supplier Offset/Transactions tab is saved. Offsets within the system are then considered to be a payment.
