The GRNI to GP Extract shows a record of any “On Account†payments, showing the account nominal codes rather than account allowing your accounts team to easily identify the exact account to charge. The account number is built up of a prefix and account type code, which can be setup under the GP configuration program in the back office under the “accounts†menu. The account reference will then be broke down further dependent on if a nominal code is setup for the specific departments that the items under the transaction OR, if it’s a till transaction, the store code prefix and then the payment method. If the line is referencing a credit back to the customer, it will only show the account type or branch prefix. The “reference†column shows the batch number, identifying all transactions that were processed at the same time.
All the account details are configurable in the back office, under the “GP Configuration†program. The first section in the program allows you to set codes for the company’s VAT and Retail account. You will then have the option to add the codes for each department. For each department you can add the Prefix for each branch, as well as a VAT ex Income nominal code and a code that links to the cost sales against that Department/Branch combination.
You will also have the option to set the prefix and nominal code for each payment method for online payments, as well as a prefix and nominal code for each till branch and payment method.
