Summary

This article explains how you can prevent invoices being paid in Sales Ledger Receipts or Purchase Ledger Payments where there are queries to be resolved.

More Information

Go to " Sales Ledger Receipts" or " Purchase Ledger Payments".

• Enter the "Customer" or "Supplier" Account Code or search for their account code.
• Enter a specific "Document" number and click [Select] or click [Select] to bring up all outstanding documents.
• Move to the Document that you want to put on hold and press <Shift+F2>.
• If there are no hold records against the document click [OK].
• Press <F6> or click [Add] to add a document hold.
• Check the "Held Amount" is correct. The system will default to the outstanding document balance.
