Why are the totals on my Posted Order Report higher than the totals on the Cash Receipts Reports?
Posting orders and applying payments to an order are two completely separate functions. An invoice can be posted without applying a payment, and a payment can be made to an invoice that has not been posted. For convenience, an invoice can be ‘Paid’ and ‘Posted’ in a single step using the ‘Pay/Post Invoice’ button. When you post an invoice with a current balance, the invoice will be posted as a Charge, and will appear on the Posted Order Report. Since you have not collected any form of payment for that invoice, it will not appear on the Cash Reciepts Report. That is why the totals on the Posted Order Report may be higher than the totals on the Cash Receipts Report.
