Features

 Purchase Order Deposits:   Enables deposit setup directly at the purchase order header level rather than relying solely on native line-by-line prepayment percentages. It supports flexible options, including percentage-based deposit calculations and fixed deposit amounts.

 Purchase Deposit Requests (Consolidation):  Allows AP teams to use a master document to consolidate multiple purchase orders for the same vendor and process deposit invoices collectively. This simplifies vendor advance workflows and reduces administrative overhead.

 Targeted Deposit Credit Memos:   Solves standard Business Central limitations by allowing finance teams to target and credit a specific historical deposit invoice without being forced to cancel or reverse all prepayment invoices on an order.

 Seamless Payment Journal Integration:   Directly links posted deposit invoices to the Payment Journal for outbound ACH, check, or EFT processing, converting posted liabilities into fully tracked prepayment assets.

 Multi-PO & Partial Drawdown Engine:   Automatically tracks unapplied deposit balances and applies them dynamically across single or multiple purchase order receipts and invoices until the deposit balance is fully consumed.

 Advanced Accounts Payable & Deposit Reporting:   Features customized reporting tools—including the Aged Accounts Payable (Deposits) and Vendor Deposit Summary—providing clear visibility into unconsumed deposit assets, applied offsets, and true net AP liabilities.

Frequently Asked Questions

Business Central does not provide a built in way to require deposits before purchase orders are released or posted. The Acumens Vendor Deposits & Prepayments Management app solves this by making deposits mandatory upfront – ensuring they are paid before the order can proceed, which secures compliance and financial control.
Business Central only supports deposits applied line by line on purchase orders, which makes tracking and consolidating deposits across multiple orders difficult. It also does not provide clear visibility into deposit consumption. The Acumens Vendor Deposits & Prepayments Management app resolves this by allowing deposits to be linked at the order level, consolidating usage across multiple purchase orders, updating vendor cards, and showing remaining balances – giving full visibility and control.
Business Central does not automatically mark or consume deposit invoices against purchase orders. The Vendor Deposits & Prepayments Management app integrates deposits into the payment journal and vendor ledger entries, ensuring deposits are applied and tracked correctly.
