Jim2 workflow
March 1
▪Review all Jim2 lists. Check all lists daily, eg. Job List, quote list. It is also good practice to follow the End of Month Procedures on a regular basis.
▪Commence debtors clean-up:
–chase up outstanding debts and collect the payments. Record the payments in Jim2
–write off old debts not expected to be collected (Debtor Adjustment Down or Bad Debt)
–write off/adjust rounding and other errors which have left debtors owing small amounts (eg. $0.01) (Debtor Adjustment Down or Discount)
–apply all unallocated prepayments and credits.
|
This is especially important if there are any invoices and payments/prepayments in foreign currency, so realisation occurs in the correct financial period. |
▪Commence creditors clean-up:
–finalise any outstanding issues with vendors, including returns to vendor
–allocate all vendor credits
–review all vendor payments due. Record vendor payments in Jim2, including direct debit, EFTPOS and credit cards.
