Advance Invoicing Enhancements –
Why ?
• Till ERP LN 10.3, when an Advance Installment is invoiced, they are
treated as actual invoices with tax amounts and logged in sales listing.
• Customers wanted an ability to distinguish Advance Invoice having tax
implications and an Advance Payment Request without tax implication .
• Advance Invoice with tax implication - Relates to a delivery or a performance. They
are logged in sales listing.
• Advance Payment Request with no tax implication – A note or request for payment
before commencement of any delivery or performance. This has no tax
implications, consequently not logged in sales listing as well.
