It is possible to register a cash payment of an invoice—for example, because a subscriber has transferred an amount to an account, or even dropped by with a cash payment received by the publisher.
Sometimes the publisher has multiple "cash registers," such as a bank account, a reception cash drawer, etc. In that case, it should be possible to specify which cash register the money was deposited into.
This is done by setting up a custom field on payments, where the type is “Select an option.” Then, you create the desired cash registers as selectable options.
Connected to this is the option to create a "fake" cash register for writing off losses on debtors. If, for example, a subscriber wants to cancel a subscription after some newspapers or magazines have already been delivered, and ends up not paying the invoice, the publisher can choose to simply credit the invoice. However, some publishers prefer a special accounting treatment of this loss, since a delivery has taken place. For this purpose, you can create a cash register called “Write-off” (or any other name you prefer) and pretend that the invoice is paid in cash to this register. This information can then be included in the accounting export (assuming you use this feature), where you include the cash register as a column. You will then have the option to treat these losses separately in your accounting system.
