Get payments from Twinfield (debtors)

MJA Updated by MJA

After a sales invoice is booked to Twinfield, it ends up in Twinfield as either a draft or final entry. Depending on the company setting within Newbase.

As soon as a payment is received in Twinfield (i.e. when an invoice is matched within Twinfield), this information must be read into Newbase so that the invoice is also set to paid (or partially paid) in Newbase.

You can retrieve payments via the 'debtor balance' widget. The internal application manager can distribute and place this widget where desired.

  1. Go to the 'debtor balance' widget
  2. Click on the pencil icon
  3. Click on the 'retrieve payments' button

When retrieving payments via the widget, Newbase searches for all outstanding invoices in Twinfield at that time. Invoices that are no longer open at that time are set to paid (or partially paid) in Newbase.
Once an invoice has been set to paid in Newbase it will no longer be a part of the search in Twinfield when retrieving payments via the widget the next time.
If a direct debit file is used within Twinfield and invoices are included in this file, these invoices will be set to paid in Newbase when the widget to retrieve payments is used.
These invoices are set to paid in Newbase while the actual debtot collection has not yet taken place. If the direct debit file is deleted, the relevant sales invoices will remain paid in Newbase, since Newbase has previously received feedback that the invoices are paid by direct debit. When an invoice has received the status paid in Newbase, it is no longer compared with Twinfield.
It is therefore important that no payments are retrieved as long as a direct debit file is not final.
In the event that sales invoices have been incorrectly paid within Newbase, you must remove the relevant payment line within the sales invoice yourself.

Differences have been found message

It is possible that when you retrieve payments, a pop-up will appear on your screen with the message that differences have been found.

It is possible that an invoice in Twinfield was previously paid but not anymore, then this message is displayed. You will therefore have to look within Twinfield to see why this is the case.
