one invoice, two types of sales
Permalink Closed


Hi guys

 

I have one invoice and there are two types of sales on it . Let's say sales A 100 pounds plus vat and sales B 200 pounds plus vat. In sage there is usually one sales account allocated for one invoice but I am supposed to post sales A on one account and sales B on another . How can I do it in sage ? Should I post my invoice as two separate invoices each of them with the same invoice number ?

You can change the sales code for each item on a sales invoice.

Being at home, I'm using Linux so no Sage - so this is from memory.

Go into your sales invoice, and double click on the line on the invoice that you want to go to a different sales code. It should open a new dialogue that allows you to change the code (and other details).

 thanks Vince for reply. I have one invoice and therefore one invoice number and two types of sales on this invoice so I have to post this invoice to two separate accounts. I don't know how to do it . I attached invoice and sage screenshot. Unfortunately on sage it looks like I am trying to post two separate invoices with the same invoice number on each of them. I don't think I can do it like that. Well, trial balance will match but I don't think I can do it. On the other hand I don't see different option.

Hi Rafal
What you are doing is correct, but always ensure the totals at the bottom reflect your total invoice amount.

Take care though.

If you use the EXACT same letters/numbers in the reference box, sage it is very clever and will assume it is one invoice. It will post the items to two different sales nominal codes as you have instructed it to do, BUT that EXACT reference will mean only one invoice is posted to your customers account to show as outstanding when you do your exports and statements.

if however you keyed the reference in as eg 0006 and then 00061 then sage thinks it is two different imvoices and will show it as two different invoices o/s in your customer account. Even spaces count so if I were you I wouldn't put the letters 'si' in, just the invoice number. The system will add the 'si' letters itself.

Yes, sorry Rafal - I read your initial question as about *creating* a sales invoice on Sage, rather than using the batch input screen to enter one created elsewhere.
