Taking Payments for Sales
Once you have added all the items for a particular sale, the next step is to receive payments against the items being sold. Nimbus RMS can handle various modes of payments. Let’s have a look:
To open the payment screen, after adding items click the Payment button at the bottom of the screen.
On the payment screen you can receive payments in the following modes:
Cash Payment
To receive a cash payment, simply enter the received amount in the Cash Paid field. The balance amount, if any, will appear in the Balance field.
Note: If there is any mistake in the entered amount, simply click the Clear button at the bottom of the screen. This will clear the amount entered in the payment field. Enter the new amount.
Click Save.
Other PM (Payment Methods)
To receive payments through payment methods other than cash, click the Other PM tab. The payment methods defined on the Payment Methods screen will load on the screen. Click the arrow button in the amount field to load more payment methods.
Enter the amount received against each payment method in the Amount field. And click Save.
Note: The names of only those payment methods will appear on the payment screen that have been defined in the system.
(Parties tab) Receiving Payment from Credit customers
If a sales is made against a credit customer, meaning credit customer is selected on the sales and return screen, on the payment screen, the Parties tab will be enabled.
Click on the parties tab to enter the amount due.
The credit customer’s ledger will be updated
If a credit customer is selected on the Sales and Return screen, the payment screen will show the entire payable amount in the Credit Amount field. The credit customer, however, has the option to make the entire payment or some of the payment in cash or through credit card. The balance amount, if any, will appear under balance receivable on Customer Receipts screen.
Receiving Split Payment
Split payment means, a customer can split the total amount to pay in cash as well as other payment methods.
If it is a credit customer, the split payment option will also include the option for credit. This means, the credit customer can choose to have some amount credited, some paid on cash, and some on other payment methods.
The sales receipt against Split payment method also shows details of payment modes.
