The SCI Invoicing and Accounts
Receivable module handles all facets of customer credit, invoicing and
collections. It not only facilitates your everyday processing but also acts as a
powerful adjunct to the order entry and sales functions.
The customer entry and inquiry program makes significant use of coded libraries
to handle such items as customer types and families, salesmen, freight and
invoice terms, ship from points and methods, and also includes an unlimited
number of comments and instructions. All of this can be defined separately for
each ship to location and are linked seamlessly with our order entry and
invoicing programs.
The system includes
a full featured invoicing utility which is capable of generating invoices from
sales orders, packing lists or on a "manual" basis. Invoices can be sent to
centralized payment centers and/or customer shipping locations, and they can be
printed or faxed directly to your customers.
One of the module's most significant features is its extremely informative
customer financial history screen. Included, among other items, are a customer's
credit contacts, phone and fax, open orders, receivables and exposure, and a
complete sales and payment history. This display not only provides you with all
the information needed to make credit decisions, but allows you to release
orders that have been placed on hold and to view the detail of every sale to and
payment from your customers.
The SCI Invoicing and Accounts Receivable module is fully integrated with our
General Ledger and Distribution modules, and allows the user to define a full
set of general ledger codes, by customer, product or default, for sales, cost of
sales, returns, receivables, discounts and allowances. The system also includes
a comprehensive Returned Goods processor which issues return authorizations,
alerts your receiving department to expect customer returns, updates inventory
when goods are received and automatically generates credit memos. Provision has
been made for defining the reasons for the return, whether or not goods are to
be returned to stock, and whether to issue full or partial credits.
Also included with your system is a full complement of reports, including daily
and monthly receipts journals, system and user-defined customer listings, and
accounts receivable ledgers and statements.
As with all of SCI's other systems, all forms and reports can be printed on
laser printers as well as a wide variety of dot-matrix printers.
