Merge Two Customers with Same name together

this tutorial is how to combine or merge two customers together.

if you have created a customer by name of Ben and again by name of Benoit but they are same company you can do the following.

go to customer records:

Customer Records

 

 

 

 

 

 

Where I have circled red is where the change is. for the current customer in yellow field I do not have Inc. at the end of the name but I add it to the Customer section of the name.

you can do the same. call up the customer Ben and change it to Benoit. Keep in mind the system will complain because now you have 2 names the same. so just add a TEMPORARLY character or number to satisfy the system for now and click save and close

No call up customer Benoit and after the name add (Do Not Use) use Ben.

Like this.

Customer Report change

 

 

 

 

 

Now you have separated the customers. you can transfer invoices from one to the other.

open the Receipts |Journal and click on the invoice you need to transfer.

Click save and close.

Reciepts

 

 

 

 

 

From here click on the red pen. hover your mouse over it and it will say adjust invoice.

this will release the invoice and allow you to make changes.

drop down the customer name and choose the one you need.

Customer change

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now you have organized your customer list and moved all invoices over to the correct customer.

Hope this helped.

Leave me a note or if you have another question let me know.

Print Sales Invoices after advancing next fiscal year

To print sales invoices after advancing to next business fiscal year.

Go to Setup – Settings – Company – Information.

Looks like this.

Settings

 

 

 

 

 

Make sure the dates are right.

If this is the first year of business you may not have these dates.

But it might be an indication as to why the invoices for previous year will not print.

Depending on the version of Sage 50 you have, there are some things you can not do in the lower version.

For example:

lets say the company fiscal year is Jan1, 2016 to December 31, 2016.

You can print invoice copies or reports or make adjusting entriesĀ for 2015 ( Jan – Dec)

but not 2014 ( Jan to Dec).

Another way to print previous year sales invoices, go to Reports, Financials, General Ledger and you show be at this screen.

Trans by account report previous year

 

 

 

 

 

 

make sure the drop down menu is accessed so you can pick the year you need.

Hope these two tips helped.

If you have older versions of Sage 50 I highly recommend you updating to the newer version.

drop me a note if you are stuck or just want to give me your feed back.
