Dear all,
I mistakenly added a wrong date of payment to a supplier payment. I need to change it to a different date. Would you please someone help me how I can change the date of the supplier payment?

Thanks in advance.

Yes, you are right and that's why I was looking for a report like the way we are familiar to see. I guess @flpages direction is the one I'm looking for.

Thank you so much. I can edit my invoice like the way you told it but I can't edit my Delivery note as it was not a physical product instead it was a due balance added using a fake servicing product. After editing the invoice from Sales > Customer Transactions it has gone from "Sales Summary Report" but it still shows in "Order Status Listing".

Would you please let me know where I can edit this information even if it is in Database.

One other point if you please see this topic and suggest me something about it: https://frontaccounting.com/punbb/viewtopic.php?id=8983

According to my previous accounting system, I used to see my account balance as follows:

Today's Sales = 15,000/-
Collection Today= 5,000/-
----------------------------------------------
Total Earning = 40,000/-
Total Expenses= 5,000/-
----------------------------------------------
Current Balance = 35,000/-

Is there any way to see balance like this example?

Thanks in advance.

Dear all,
I have written this issue in one of my other post, I thought it should go with a different post here.

I want to know is there any way in FA for installment sales, along with installment collection schedules and reports. I want to have the ability to do the following:

- Add Total Sales Price
- Add Down payment
- Installment Amount per month / quarter
- Due date for each installment
- Installment Status report showing the installments received till date and the balance amount remaining.

Would you please someone let me know if there is any extension available in FA either free or paid.

With best regards,

In old accounting system:
1. Before closing your old accounting system previous fiscal year, take a trial balance.
2. Segregate entries for unpaid invoices and the partial payments related to them - AR and AP.
3. Get the segregated Trial Balance without the above entries.

In new FA system:
1. In your new FA system, create the previous fiscal and make your current balances as as the end of that fiscal from the segregated Trial Balance obtained above.
2. Make the subsequent entries for the previous fiscal's unpaid invoices for both AR and AP.
3. Create a new fiscal year for the current period in the new FA.
4. Now close the previous fiscal in the new FA.
5. You will now be able to allocate payments to the old AR/AP unpaid invoices in the new FA.

You may need to make a few iterations - so keep a backup at each stage in both the old and the new systems.

If in doubt, take professional assistance.


Dear Apmuthu, I never thought of your quick reply. It's really amazing that you always take care of all the user who are using FA. Your explanation with in detail normalize all the things circulated around my mind except the last one.

Would you please let me know how to do the following scenario in FA:

I have to sell products in installment, client pay a down payment and conduct any of my installment terms as follows:
1. Sales invoice with down payment entry (let's say 50% of the total amount).
2. Installment date entry (i.e. rest 50% in 3 months, 3 payment dates entry)
3. Show reports of Today's installment collection.

Last but not the least I also was searching for a sale entry where I can enter customer name and address without going through a seperate Customer form.

With best regards,
