Goodbye Express Accounts

[briantetlow]

A couple of weeks ago, I posted a message to support. They asked me for more information and I forwarded the following:

1. When entering a "Non-invoiced sale" (simple sale) When the sale is

made, there is no option to select "petty cash" or any other bank type

account. In fact it just always goes to "checking account"

and if one changes the name of "checking account", the journal entry

does not list any account where the money has gone.

 

In a business when one does does cash sales, you would have an account

(bank type account) and call it something like "cash drawer". Funds

from cash sales go into the cash draw and as it gets larger, funds are

then transferred from the "cash drawer" to either the bank or

possibly "petty cash".

 

The money never gets shown as going from a cash sale straight to a

bank account.

 

A simple solution would to either be able to select an account in the

options or to have a drop down where the account can be selected when

making the payment (like when making a payment for an invoice).

 

That's the biggest issue and hopefully you can make the changes and

get this one bug fixed.

 

Today I received the reply:

Hi,

 

The petty cash option only shows on payment window.(see attachment)

Fantastic. Being told what I already knew which was the subject of the complaint initially. It only shows on the payment window for a normal invoice and NOT the "simple sale" invoice.

With a reply like that, I don't hold out too much hope to have that and the other issues (as outlined in a previous post) rectified.

 

Adios

Actually, based on your original question in our support system, this function has been added to our developers ToDo list. While I can't say for sure when this feature will be available in Express Accounts, I can assure you that it is being worked on and will be available as soon as possible.
