Adding Opening Balances & Payments
What is Opening Balance?

1.   Opening balance is the balance contact (customer or supplier) have at the beginning of using the software.
2.  Suppose you’re shifting the data from another software to AcorCloudPOS then the opening balance of the contact will be the balance amount which the contact has to pay/receive to/from you.
3.  Opening balance for customer = Amount the customer has to pay
4.  Opening balance for supplier = Amount you have to pay to the supplier.

Adding Opening Balances

You can add an opening balance when adding/editing the supplier or customer. In the add contact screen, you will find the opening balance field.

View Opening balance payment

To view the opening balance of contact, go to List Supplier/customer, go to view, and on the view page, you will find the opening balance & opening balance due.

Pay or receive payment of opening Balance

Adding payment of the opening balance is the same as any other payments. Go to list Customer/Supplier -> Actions -> Pay.

It will open a popup modal where you can enter the payment amount.

Customer's & Supplier's Ledger and View

To view customer or supplier ledger

1.  Go to Contacts -> Supplier/Customer
2.  In that screen you will be able to see Ledger for the customer or supplier.
3.  You can select a date-range and use the checkbox filters to show/hide certain transaction type.

Customer Group

With customer Groups, you can classify a customer as Retail Customers, WholeSale Customer, Friends, Colleagues etc..

1. To add a “Customer Group” go to Contacts -> Customer Groups & Click on “Add” button.

2. It will show a popup asking for customer group name & Calculation Percentage. Calculation percentage is used to calculate selling price.

Example:

– Suppose if the Selling Price set for a product Product1 is $200
– Customer Group Name = Friend
- Calculation Percentage = -20
– Note: -20 (notice a minus sign) or you may set it 20 = +20%
– And you have created a customer with Harry with Customer Group assigned as Friend.
– Now go to pos or Sell screen. Select the customer Harry and add the product1.
– You will notice that the selling price set for the product1 will be 200-20% = $160

This is how customer Group works.

Customer Group does an internal calculation and applied the calculation percentage to the selling price. It will not show a separate discount on the invoice or the pos screen.

This feature is highly useful when you have retail, wholesale or different customer categories.

You can view report for different customer group from “Customer Groups Report” or in other terms if you have retail and wholesale customer group you can see which type of customer group is giving more sale.
