Summary

The following article explains how to settle outstanding finance on a stand-alone unit purchase.

More Information

This is done by journalling the amount from your bank account to the finance settlement control account.

When purchasing a unit, either by the part exchange route or a direct purchase, that has outstanding finance, the system posts the finance balance to the Finance Settlement Control account and this will need paying to the appropriate finance company.

Go to " Nominal Ledger Journal Entries".

  • At "Entry mode:", choose 'Multiple'.
  • At "Date:", enter the date of the cheque or BACS payment that you are going to make.
  • At "Reversing?", choose 'No'.
  • Enter the nominal code for the Bank Account.
  • Enter the amount of the settlement in the Credit(-) column.
Note: Because you are entering the value in the "Credit(-)" column, the figure will automatically be a negative amount, so you do not need to enter a '-' sign here.
  • Enter a comment of the stock number of the unit and the word 'Settled', e.g. 'VEH 1234 Settled'. If you paid by cheque, enter the cheque number as well.
  • Enter the nominal code for the 'Finance Settlement Control', (e.g. '19850' in the standard nominal codes).
  • Enter the amount of the settlement in the Debit(+) column.
  • Use the same comment as above by clicking the [Last Comment] button at the top of the screen.
  • Click [Done] and [Accept] to complete the posting.
