Close Voucher (Checkbox)/Open Voucher (Checkbox)

This has inherited the setting from the Close checkbox in the tag vouchers screen. If the voucher is not to be closed, uncheck the box. This checkbox heading becomes "Open Voucher" when opening an already saved invoice.

Item Description (2 Fields, 60 Chars each)

The booking name is automatically written to the first description field. This can be edited and additional text can be entered in the second field if required.

Expected (Gross, Nett, Tax) (Display Only

These three fields display the vouchered amount that was expected to be paid.

Invoiced Previously (Gross, Nett, Tax) (Display Only

These fields display any amount for this voucher which has been previously invoiced.

This Invoice (Gross, Nett, Tax) (Numeric, 12.4)

These fields show the amount that was entered or selected in the tag vouchers screen. They can be overwritten.

Withheld Amount (Gross, Nett, Tax) (Numeric, 12.4)

If an amount is being withheld from the supplier—i.e., an amount in dispute that may be paid at a later date — then the amount being withheld can be entered in these fields. Withheld amounts can be released for payment or crediting (see Accounts 2 User Manual, A.P. Release Withheld Amounts).

NOTE: When an amount is being withheld, the full amount (including the amount to be withheld) must be entered in the This Invoice field, and the amount being Withheld entered in the Withheld fields. Withheld amounts should not be confused with short payments. If the expected/vouchered value is 100.00 and the supplier sends an invoice for 80.00, then the 20.00 residual is not a withheld amount, it is an under payment and the voucher can be closed. If the expected/vouchered value is 100.00 and there is a dispute over 20.00 of the invoice, then the 20.00 is a withheld amount.
