Multiview Client/Server Accounts Receivable

The Multiview Accounts Receivable module is fully integrated with the Multiview General Ledger. All of the detailed information to support the general ledger and the balance sheet is available within the Accounts Receivable module. This information is available on a real time basis.

Additional features are:

• Ability to establish and maintain in A/R: company policy relating but not limited to payment terms, product identification and pricing, credit management and the tracking of multiple taxes.
• Can support many different companies and maintain separate A/R “control“ accounts for each individual company, simplifying data entry.
• Cash receipts may be applied to invoices or may be considered as deposits or prepayments. Receipts may be automatically applied to invoices or manually applied to invoices or simply left unapplied.
• Users have the ability to maintain the recurring invoice process and set the recognition date of invoices. Invoices may be generated through a template or A/R entry and can be modified.
• Ability to maintain and recognize deferred revenue, where the deferral is contingent upon an event occurring (such as payment) or revenue may be recognized on a specific date(s) into the future. Revenue is automatically recognized by the system for unconditionally deferred or for conditional upon payment deferrals.
• A/R may be defined by region, managers can be assigned to a series of accounts and representatives may be assigned to each account.
• A/R module has a built in credit history for internal information only and can be flagged as active or inactive.
• Ability to offer price discounts by customer type, product type, the individual product or any combination thereof.
• Tax groups can be set up to group state taxes with those of the individual counties within that state.
• There is a choice of three different A/R statement formats and their cycle may be set to weekly or monthly. Automatic interest generation can be made available on a customer-by-customer basis. The module has the ability to write off balances against predetermined distribution codes.
• Each company can design invoices to their own specifications by defining count and size of the detail lines and instructions to be printed.
• Built in capability to print invoices using many different parameters such as by batch or range of batches, by company, invoice number, transaction type or by batch status.
• A/R reporting can be done through Multiview G/L and CS DAVE, including customer transaction reporting based on parameters set in the Multiview tables.
• As with other modules A/R has strong interface capabilities allowing for easy integration with outside systems.
• Multiview's A/R module allows for the recognition of ”families“ of customers thus allowing parents to pay child customer invoices. Parent summary A/R statements are available, while individual statements for all parents and children are still produced.
