Tracking Number Setup

Records a range of pre-printed numbers (a receipt book) handed to a person, one line per number, so that every receipt is accounted for: used on a collection, or void.

Where
Accounts Receivable › Tracking Number › Tracking Number Setup
Who uses it
Finance office, the collector's supervisor
When
When a book is issued, and when a receipt is spoiled

What it is for​

Collectors write the receipt number in the Tracking Number column of the Collection. The Tracking Number Setup list then shows, number by number, whether it was used on a collection (with the collection, the payer and the amount) or voided. The collection does not check the number against this screen: any number can be typed.
