Pay on Multiple Accounts

Some facilities use multiple accounts or databases that include, for example, a resort, a restaurant, and membership accounts with charges going to different places that need to be paid off separately.

So when your members get charged each month for these various changes, your back office may want to run a payment on an account that goes to more than one GL code. You need to set up using multiple accounts if this is the case.

 

For example, if you wanted to separate F&B, membership dues, and the golf charges.

To enable the multiple accounts

  1. Go to Tools | Options | Sales Options | Sales. The Sales screen displays to the right.

  2. Select the blue down-arrow to the left of the Course Specific Options. The options display.

  3. Select the Use Multiple Pay On Account checkbox.

    Note: When enabled, this option allows your Pay on Accounts pop-up to contain many different categories on which to pay. These categories are created in the Inventory module. See instructions below to learn how.

  4. Select the Save button in the lower right corner.

BEST PRACTICE: You should immediately close the software and login again for the changes to take place.
