Specifying advance clearing details
An advance is a payment that a customer makes prior to the goods delivery. When you invoice the goods, you can clear the advance against the final sales invoice. When you clear the advance, you mark the sales invoice as paid completely or partially depending on the total amount of advance payments. To view closing balance by sales invoices, run the Statement of account and Accounts receivable balance.
To offset advance payments against a sales invoice, use any of the following options:

Specifying early payment discounts
You can specify early payment discounts in sales invoices that meet the following conditions:
- The Third-party payment checkbox is cleared.
- A customer's contract (if specified) states that Counterparty role is Customer.
An early payment discount is a discount that a company gives customers when they pay their invoice before a certain date. Early payment discounts can be applied to adjust a company's output VAT.
If a company provides such discounts, specify them when you create a sales invoice. If a customer makes a payment within the discount period, this reduces the payment amount. If you set so, this also decreases the company's output VAT.
Specify early payment discounts on a sales invoice's Early payment discounts tab. By default, it is prefilled from the billing details of the customer specified in the sales invoice. You can change prefilled discount details manually.
To specify an early payment discount manually, click Add and fill in the discount fields. For details, see Early payment discounts tab.

This section is applicable if a company's accounting policy states that the sales tax is applied to the company's sales transactions (the Registered for a sales tax permit checkbox is selected on the Finance tab of the accounting policy).
As you create a sales invoice, you can specify the sales tax applied to the invoiced products. After you post the sales invoice, the sales tax payable is recorded.
