The Final Steps 5-8, exporting, paying & keeping the bills FINAL STAGE Again the screen shots in the Appendix on page 6 might be helpful if you get stuck: 4. APPROVE INVOICES a) BILLS TAB Find the tab called Bills. The default view of this tab are for bills that fall due in the current month. It does not include invoices that have not yet fallen due, although you can select that option from this page along with other search variations. This section is to help you become familiar with the columns on display: a. PAY Tick Box You tick this when you are ready to pay an invoice or all the invoices due to a supplier. This cannot be selected until the invoice has been approved (refer 1/g below). b. CREDITOR This displays the name of the supplier and provides a warning if any details are incomplete such as their bank account number, email address, etc. Simply double click on the suppliers name to add or edit any supplier details. Don t forget to scroll down to the bottom of the page and press the SAVE button. c. REFERENCE This details the suppliers invoice or credit note number. Double clicking on this number will expose the data that has been extracted from the invoice. If required details can be 2 P a g e Copyright 2016 VeBills Ltd. All rights reserved.
edited at this point. The paper clip icon to the right of invoice number can be clicked to gain access to the original invoice in pdf form. d. ORDER NUMBER If an order number was entered at the Verify Invoice stage the order number will appear in this column. e. INVOICE DATE Hopefully self-explanatory. f. DUE DATE This is system generated calculated from the invoice date plus the suppliers terms. g. TOTAL This is the total value of the original invoice. h. STILL OWING This will always be the same as the TOTAL unless there has been a partial payment(s) made against the invoice. In which case this column will be the total value of the invoice less payments, resulting in the remaining balance left to pay. i. APPROVE When you are ready to fully pay or process another part payment, tick this box. Unless an invoice is approved it cannot be paid. j. TO PAY This will normally be populated with the total amount of the invoice or the total remaining. If you need to reduce the amount to pay, simply over type the amount. k. METHOD This will display the default method of payment for this supplier which is selected when a new supplier is set up. You do have the option to press the dropdown button and change the method of payment. l. DAYS This displays the number of days overdue for each invoice. 5. EXPORT DATA This process is optional because VeBills will operate on a stand-alone basis. However, if you need to export your data to another accounting program this is where you can do it. a) Find the Export Payable Tab b) Choose the accounting program you would like to export to. (if the program you want to export to is not showing in the dropdown, please send details of the name and version to support@vebills.co.nz 3 P a g e Copyright 2016 VeBills Ltd. All rights reserved.
c) Select the time frame for the data you wish to import into your alternative system or to simple export to Excel. 6. PREPARING TO PAY AN INVOICE To keep this process simple we will focus only paying just one invoice. Off course the same procedure can be followed when paying multiple invoices. a) APPROVE This signals to VeBills that the payment process can commence. If an invoice does not get approved it cannot be paid. b) To PAY AMOUNT Amend the amount to pay if you decide to pay a lessor amount than the total due. c) METHOD Change the method of payment if different from the default. d) PAY TICK BOX Tick the tick box on the left hand side of the screen. This tells Vebills the invoice(s) to pay when the next button is pressed. e) PAY BUTTON Pressing this button in the bottom right corner of the screen will activate the payment process and gather up all approved and ticked to pay invoices by payment type. f) NEW PAYMENT BATCH This displays the details of the amounts to be processed through your bank account. This gives the opportunity to select if a remittance advice is to be sent to the supplier. If no email address appears when you select the tick box you will need to go to the Administration Menu and choose Suppliers, then add the email address. By pressing the PAY button again will mark the invoice as paid. g) INVOICE PAID This will return you to the Invoice Payables Screen and display the amount still owing on the invoice, which in most cases with be zero. Paid invoices remain in view until the end of the month. h) PAYMENT DETAILS If you want to examine the payment details click on the invoice reference number and you see the payment record details at the bottom of the screen. If there have been a number of payments, they will all be listed there. 7. LINK TO BANK a) Business Banking If you use business banking software you can import the batch of payments, including supplier s bank account and 4 P a g e Copyright 2016 VeBills Ltd.
