2013 Sales Payment Discount - Strange Posting

katie_at_creative

Hello all,

I have had a strange situation where a sales invoice was posted, no payment discounts against the payments terms, no line discounts, and no invoice discounts.

When posting the cash receipt journal the system was complaining about the 'Payment Disc Debit Account' in the Customer Posting Group setup. The invoice was applied at the time of posting the journal.

I specified this and posted the journal, thinking it would not post a value as there are no discounts, but it posted 100% discount to the G/L specified. This is wrong! It also showed on the customer ledger entries for the payment line it had an amount of double the invoice value. On the detailed ledger entries it showed an initial amount, then another line the same value as a payment discount.

We unapplied the payment and the invoice, then reapplied the payment to the invoice, this has reversed the 100% discount in the Payment Disc Debit Account, and now the remaining amounts have gone back to 0, this is correct!

We cannot replicate this and have tried several times.

I am confused! This is using version 2013.
