Lesson #58
Receivables – Paid Invoices function

Quickly see which invoices were entered as paid today, or use search criteria to find all invoices paid within a specified period, grouped and sorted by the payment date or when the transaction was posted. You can also limit the results to those of one or several of your company’s business units.

In the results returned, you can see at a glance:

  • invoice number
  • Date
  • Amount
  • Payment date
  • Payment amount
  • Any balance remaining
  • Firm billed
  • Relevant contact at the firm billed
  • Job number
  • Job date
  • Related case
  • Your company’s assigned business unit

You can sort your results in the grid by one or more columns in ascending or descending order (but when you exit the function, RB9 will revert back to the default order). Export the list to edit, share, archive, or print.

You can drill down to see details about an individual invoice, such as the service items billed, related resource pay and sales commissions, and the breakdown of charges included in the payment. You can also download the related invoice PDF from the invoice repository or resend it to the client, and edit some invoice details.

NOTE: This is an RB9-only function. It is not included in RB Lite.

TL;DR: Lists all invoices paid within the specified period, from first paid to latest paid.

Lesson #47
Manage accounts receivable

Receivables is another large module in RB with functions for accepting and crediting payments, assessing additional charges, correct invoices, monitor accounts receivable, and perform collections. In this module, you can:

  • Credit and track client payments. Apply a payment to multiple invoices at once. Apply retainers and payments via checks, PayPal or credit cards.
  • Keep track of retainers. If a client has a retainer, it automatically appears when crediting payments from that client so you can apply it.
  • Enter credits, discounts, overpayments, and other adjustments.
  • Balance transactions and post payments.
  • Enter non-cash transactions, such as credit and debit memos, duplicate payments, refunds, miscellaneous income, voids, and write-offs.
  • Acknowledge client payments with emailed receipts.
  • Provide resources with billing reports instead of invoices to see what they can expect to be paid for work they have done.
  • Assess finance charges.
  • Include PayPal and credit card processing fees.
  • Run daily register reports.
  • Print or email monthly journal reports to your accountant. Get an instant snapshot of accounts receivable for any date.
  • Send clients monthly statements via email or regular mail.
  • View monthly client activity reports. View all paid or voided invoices for a set time period.
  • Find overdue invoices.
  • Send clients detailed collection letters.
  • Monitor collection efforts using reports, follow-up alerts, collections notes log, and copies of disputed or unpaid bills you can pull up from the central repository and email to clients from within RB.
