Article summary

The Payables Invoice Distribution focuses on the distribution of specified GL accounts within AP invoices and the payments applied to them. Since payments in R365 are applied at the invoice level, they will be distributed on a weighted average basis if any balance remains on the invoice. The report includes AP invoice distribution lines and reflects payments and credits as of the report’s run date, regardless of the date range specified. Users have the option to filter by bank accounts, vendor, AP invoice date, paid date, and GL account.

If using the latest version of macOS Catalina (10.15.6) while downloading this report, ensure that the report is opened via browser rather than Preview to access hyperlinked items.

When one invoice is applied to different GL Accounts, that invoice will appear for each account, and as the invoice amount is paid, the payment will be distributed among all GL Accounts based on the amount owed for each account, reflecting a remaining amount for each. For example, an invoice with a total of $1000 is partially paid in the amount of $750. This payment will be applied to the entire invoice, but is distributed among 3 separate accounts:

  • GL Account #1 = $350 / $1000 = 35% x payment of $750 = $262.50, leaving a remaining balance of $87.50

  • GL Account #2 = $500 / $1000 = 50% x payment of $750 = $375, leaving a remaining balance of $125

  • GL Account #3 = $150 / $1000 = 15% x payment of $750 = $112.50, leaving a remaining balance of $37.50
