How to record an 'Other Receipt'
Description
At times, you need to record a payment that you don’t apply to an invoice. To do this, create an Other Receipt in the appropriate bank account to record the payment without issuing an invoice.

 

Some common reasons to create an Other Receipt are to record:

  • Daily register sales
  • Electronic payments made to your bank account
  • A sale to a non-regular customer
  • A one-time only sale
  • Refund cheques from the CRA
