Receipts register report
The Receipts register report lists your receipts and enables you to perform the following actions:
- Drill down to the invoices to which the receipts were applied.
- Drill down to the customer's information from this report.
- Reverse transactions.
- Find payments that have not been fully applied, where the amount received is greater than the amount applied.
You can view the report in greater or lesser detail, and restrict it to receipts that have not yet been deposited.
Multi-entity shared users can reverse a transaction when they are at the top level of the company or in the entity that created the transaction. Otherwise, the option to Reverse is disabled.
Treasurers, accountants, and controllers who need to see your list of receipts and figure our how payments have been applied.

Use trial-and-error to get the precise results you want.
Fill in the desired boxes, and select View to see the report. If after viewing the results you want to refine the report further, select Customize to return to the report setup page.

Time period
You can use one of the pre-defined reporting periods available from the Reporting Period and As of Date boxes, or create your own reporting period using the Start Date and End Date boxes.

In the Time period section do one of the following:

- Enter an As of date (the date that the system will use as a baseline for the period you select. Leave blank for today's date).

If you complete all the time period fields (that is, if you fill in the Reporting period, As of date, Start date, and End date fields), Sage Intacct generates your report based on the start and end dates. It ignores the As of date.
The following table describes each item in the Time period section of this report settings page:
| Time period box | Description | Limitations |

Report filters
Use the filters to focus the results of your report. In effect, filters enable you to isolate and assemble just the data you want. You can set any combination of filters.
-
To select a particular bank account, select the Bank dropdown list, and then select the account you want the report to include.
Administrators can pre-set a default bank in the Configure Cash Management page. For multi-entity shared companies, you can set a default bank on an entity-by-entity basis.
- To show results for a specific customer, use the Customer dropdown list.
-
The following filter options display only if you work in a multi-currency and multi-entity environment:
- To select transactions of a specified currency, use the Transaction Currency dropdown list. This option appears only if your company uses foreign transaction currencies. If you do not make a selection, the report contains transactions of all currencies. However, the report itself is in base currency.
-
To filter the report by geographic location, enter the name of the region, country, state or territory, or city in the Location box, or select the down arrow, and then select the location you want from the list that appears.
You must enter or select a location if you want to run this report at the top level. The location you specify determines the appropriate currency.
- To filter the report by department within the company, enter the name of the department in the Department box, or select the down arrow and then, from the list that appears, select the department you want.
-
If you want the report to cover certain locations regardless of what you select in the Location box, use the Show For field. To do this, in the Show For field, select the down arrow and then select the locations you want the report to cover:
- If you want the report to include data for all locations regardless of the entity you're currently using, select All Locations.
- If you want the report to include data only for the entity you're currently using, select This Location.
- If you want the report to include data only for locations that are child locations of your current entity, select Child Locations. For example, if your current entity is California, and you have child locations for San Francisco and Los Angeles, use this option to have the report include data only for Los Angeles and San Francisco.
- Select the Show details checkbox if you want the report to add a second line of data, which includes Account, Account Label, Invoice No., Location, Department, and Memo.
- Select the Undeposited receipts only checkbox if you want the report to include undeposited receipts only. Otherwise, it displays all receipts that meet the filter criteria.

What's in this report?
The default Receipts Register report consists of the following columns:
| Report Column Heading | Description |
|---|---|
|
Receipt date |
The date you received the payment. |
|
Customer |
The customer who made the payment. |
|
Payment method |
Method used to make the payment. |
|
Transaction number, Transaction date |
Information about the payment. |
|
Txn currency |
For multi-currency, multi-entity companies only. The currency in which the transaction was paid. |
|
Txn amount |
For multi-currency, multi-entity companies only. The amount of the bill in the currency preferred by the vendor. |
|
Amount |
The amount paid by the customer in your base currency. |
|
Amount applied |
The amount of the payment that has already been applied to invoices. It might or might not equal the amount of payment. If you have not applied all of the payment, the number in this column is less than that in the Amount column. Consequently, one function of this report is to find any payments that have not been fully applied. |
|
Deposited on |
The date you deposited the payment. |
|
Bank account |
The bank account where you deposited the payment. |
|
Invoices |
Drill down to view transaction details. |

Reverse a transaction
-
Find the entry you want to reverse in the receipts register, and select Reverse at the end of the entry.
The Transaction Reversal Date page appears.
-
Select the date for reversing the transaction.
The reversal date is usually the original transaction date or a later date.
- Select Submit.
The Receipts register page removes Reverse and tags the entry as Reversed. Intacct adds an additional balancing entry, which it tags as Reversal.
Why can't I undo a reversal?
Undoing a reversal isn't in accordance with accounting best practices. Instead of undoing a reversal, perhaps one that was done by mistake, re-enter the original transaction, correcting any errors.
This ensures that the original transaction, reversal, and new transaction provide a valid audit trail and are compliant.
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) is an accounting standard. Set by the standards organizations Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB), and Financial Accounting Foundation (FAF), GAAP ensures uniform and consistent financial reporting across governments, businesses, and noprofit organizations.
GAAP compliance works to make sure that financial reporting is transparent and adheres to well defined rules.
Sage Intacct adheres to these standards when creating workflows that help maintain GAAP compliance.
For example, some accounting software allows editing transactions in closed periods. Sage Intacct requires books to be reopened to make changes. This way, Sage Intacct ensures GAAP compliance, an accurate audit trail, and complete historical reporting.
