In payment voucher, if the amounts do not match exactly, it is possible to fully reconcile invoices and keep the difference open. In manual reconciliation, the only available options are 'Write-Off' and 'Partial Reconcile'.
I want to do full reconciliation and keep the remaining the difference amount open, like in payment voucher but the payments are already posted and can cannot be split. I thought of two options:
Create new reconciliation module similar to
account_reconcile
. It should create a new entry in a special journal 'Reconciliation Entries' with receivable debit and credit equal to the difference to allow reconciling one line and keep the other line open. A due date, name and comment can be added to the open line.Select 'Write-Off' and set 'Accounts Receivable' as the write-off account instead of an expense account.
Is there a better method to handle this issue? Are there any consequences or side-effects for the above solutions.
