Hi,
We are moving to advanced layouts and are trying to replicate the payment voucher PDF. In the old style PDF forms, the payment column shows the total applied as part of the payment transaction: this would include the amount applied to a credit, and the amount applied to the invoice by the payment. However the advanced pdf forms show a payment value after credits have been applied.
For example: I have an invoice for £100, and a credit for £25. When a payment is made to cover both the credit and the invoice, the old style pdf layout will list the credit with a payment amount of -$25 and the Invoice with a payment amount of £100. The total of this is the correct payment amount of £75. However, the advanced PDF layout payment voucher will list the invoice with a payment value of £75 and the credit with a payment value of £25. The payment voucher total amount will still say £75, but the sum of invoices and credits = £100 which is wrong.
The main reason for wanting a payment voucher which replicates the old style, is that it makes it easier for our suppliers to match a long list of transactions on the payment voucher. This matching is often done by value, so when the supplier is trying to match the invoice of £100, the payment voucher is not helpful by listing it as £75.
Is there a way to replicate the old style layouts for payment vouchers?
Many thanks in advance.
Daniel
