CR Type Code Maintenance
Summary
Type codes create a single line item when they are added to a receipt on the Detail
tab of the Cash Entry window and have four main uses: charge for miscellaneous
items such as copy machine fees, create a deposit on a UB module customer
account, record a cash drawer over/short amount, or record bank fees.
When a type code is attached to a receipt on the Detail tab of the Cash Entry window, a
detail line item will be added to the receipt that will debit and credit the GL
accounts attached to the type code. The type code receipt line item will not
generate a history item on any customer account (Utility Billing, Accounts
Receivable, etc.) attached to the receipt unless the type code is creating a
deposit on a UB module customer account.
Only one debit and credit GL account can be associated with a single type code. If
you would like to associate multiple general ledger accounts with a type code,
create a type code for each debit and credit GL account you would like to affect
in the transaction and then group those type codes into a category code. Type
codes can be grouped together and added to the receipt at one time using
category codes (CR> Maintenance> Category). Category codes are added to a
receipt using the Account/Category tab of the Cash Entry window and all of the
type codes grouped onto the category code will be applied to the receipt.
Type codes can be used to record over and short cash drawer adjustments to get the
Cash Receipts Proof List Report to match the amount of the receipts in the cash
drawer. Create a type code with the debit and credit GL accounts you would like
to affect with the transaction, and check the Allow Negative Amount Receipts
toggle in the CR Setup Window (CR> Utilities> Setup Cash Receipts) so that you
can create negative amount receipts. When there is an over or short in a Cash
Receipts batch, create a receipt in the batch and add the over/short adjustment
type code to a receipt that is not attached to a customer account. Use the Amount to Pay column on the Detail tab of the Cash Entry
window to adjust the amount on the Cash Receipts Proof List to match the
receipts in the Cash Drawer.
Type codes can also be used to enter bank fees. Entering the bank fee amounts in the
Cash Receipts module means that the bank fees will display in the Bank
Reconciliation module.
There is a separate help document that explains how to create a deposit on UB customer
accounts with a CR type code.
The Receipt Listing Report (CR> Reports> Receipt Listing) can be filtered by type
code and will display the type code line items and receipt information,
including the customer information.

Step by Step
2 Complete the Type Code Maintenance window.
- Select a Type from the drop-down menu.
- Select Standard to create a type code that will be used to add standard fees to a receipt.
- Select Tax to create a type code that will be used to apply taxes to Standard type codes.
- This will disable the Amount field below and enable the Percentage field. This is the only type code that uses the Percentage field.
- You must create a Tax type code first in order to add taxes types to Standard type codes.
- Select UB Deposits to create a type code that will be used to create UB cash deposits.
- Enter a Type Code. The type code can be up to 20 alphanumeric characters long.
- The type code will display on the Cash Receipts Proof List in the Type column when
receipt line items are generated using the type code.
- Enter a Description of the type code. This field can be up to 25 alphanumeric
characters long. If this is a UB deposit, the description does not have to be
the same as the description on the special charge code.
- If this type code is usually the same dollar amount, enter that amount in the Amount
field. If the amount varies, leave this field at 0.00.
- When you are creating a new type code the Active toggle will be checked and will be
disabled. The Active toggle will be enabled if you are modifying an
existing type code.
- If you uncheck the Active toggle, the type code will still display in the Type Code
Selection window (CR> Cash Receipts> Enter Receipts> Details tab> Create/New
icon), but it will be marked as inactive.
- Enter a Percentage if you are creating a Tax type code.
- Enter the General Ledger Accounts where this type code line item should be recorded.
- The Debit account is usually a cash GL account and the Credit account is usually a revenue
GL account if the type code is going to be used to record the receipt of cash
for a purchase.
- This will be the only journal entry created by the type code line item. Any expenses
associated with the line item, such as inventory, will have to be expensed
separately. If you would like to expense the adjustment type, you can create
another type code to create the expense journal entry line items and then group
the cash and expense type codes together on a category code (CR> Maintenance>
Category).
- The field in the General Ledger Accounts section will not be enabled if the UB Deposit Type toggle is checked.
- The Task and Type fields are used to track receipts on the task and type code in
the Project Management module. These fields will only be enabled if the PM
module is set up to interface with the CR module.
- Check the Project Management Interface toggle (CR> Utilities> Setup) to enable the PM
module Task and Type code fields on the type code.
3 Attach a slip to the type code.
- Specific Slips can be attached to a Type Code. For example, you may have a generic
receipt that prints for most cash receipts, but if someone is paying for a
Business License, you might want something special noted on the receipt. You
can create a different receipt for Business Licenses and attach it to print only
with this Type Code.
- Click the Create icon
drop-down menu and select New Slip to select a slip from a list.
- Each Slip can be given its own Print Order so you know when the printer will be
printing receipts and when you should put anything in the printer that needs an
endorsement. This information is entered into the Print Order
column next to the Slip Name.
- For example, you may want to print a standard receipt, a Business License receipt, and then
endorse a Business License document. In this case, the standard receipt would
be Print Order 1, the Business License receipt would be Print Order 2, and the
special endorsement for Business Licenses would be Print Order 3.
4 Attach a Tax to the type code.
