      Does anyone know if it is possible to get the Payment Method balancing functionality working in a Sales Journal?

      It works if I create and post a Sales Invoice – and the credit to Sales Ledger Control and debit to the balancing account post perfectly.
      We don’t want to produce a Sales Invoice however; as this is a cash collection from a Customer so no invoice is necessary.

      Basically we need to create Customer Ledger Entries for historical reporting – and also create the following G/L entries;

      Credit – Sales
      Credit – Sales Tax
      Debit – Sales Ledger Control
      Credit – Sales Ledger Control
      Debit – Collection Debtors

      The Collection Debtors G/L Account is then cleared out on a General Journal when the cash is deposited to the bank.

      It seems that the balancing account on a Payment Method would work perfectly – but it doesn’t create the balancing entries on a Sales Journal.

      Any ideas?

      Sounds like it will need to be a customization.Ā  I was able to add the Payment Method Code to the Sales Journal. Populated the sales journal line with a payment method which had a balancing account and posted.Ā  Unfortunately, it only posted the sales line and didn’t trigger the settlement using the payment method code.Ā  You’ll need to talk with your partner.
