Issue:
You receive a third party finance payment and need to record it in Evosus.
Resolution:
Finance fees are applied when adding the payment for the customer, but can only be applied once the order is invoiced.
- Go to Customer Profile > Payment/Refunds > Payment
-
Enter the payment amount minus the finance fee (the amount of the check).
-
Select a payment method. Dealers generally use the Check payment method or create a new payment method specifically for finance check payments.
-
Select a cash drawer.
-
Enter a check number or reference number.
-
In the lower right, click Apply Discounts.
-
In the Finance Fees field, enter the finance fees withheld.
-
Click Close.
-
Click Save Payment.
To confirm where the Finance Fees field will post, go to Administration > Accounting > General Setup > Accounting Defaults. Locate Finance Fee on the Acct Recv tab. That is the GL account Evosus will use to post Finance Fees entered via customer payments. 
- If an amount was entered in the AmtToPay column before an AR Discount/Finance Fee was applied you will need to edit the AmtToPay column to account for the AR Discount/Finance Fee.
