The Cash Receipts window is used to work with anything pertaining to the receipt of funds. From this module, you can both classify and record incoming funds in any of the following categories, as well as reverse them when necessary, due to error or other circumstances.
- Payments to A/R Bill - Lets you apply a cash receipt to a bill's summary fees, summary expenses, interest, surcharges and taxes, or to specific timekeeper/expense code allocations. Payments to A/R bills use the bank account assigned to the matter's office.
- Deposits to Prepaid Cash (PPD) - Lets you record a credit cash amount, which later becomes available for use on a prebill (in "Edit Prebills.") Payments to prepaid case use the prepaid asset and liability accounts assigned to the matter's office.
- Deposits to Client/Matter Trust Accounts - This classification is available only if the Disbursements module is installed. Lets you record a cash receipt to a client/matter trust fund account, which also becomes available for use on a prebill (in "Edit Prebills.") Deposits to trust accounts require a trust type bank code, which defines the trust asset and liability accounts.
- Receipts for Non-Client Cash - This classification is available only if the Firm Accounting module is installed. Lets you record a payment which is not client related. Receipts for non-client cash require an operating type bank code at the time of the entry.
