Fill out the cash entry form
The following four steps are required to be filled out.

The following details are optional depending on the type of cash entry you are entering:
Choose the invoice date
This can be done manually or using the calendar. For Open entries, this defaults to the current date
Enter the payment terms
Your payment terms may vary from invoice to invoice.
You can choose to set the payment terms to:
- On Receipt

Enter the due date
For entries that are Open, the due date will automatically be set, depending on your payment terms. For example, if your payment term is on receipt, the due date will default to the current date. If the payment term is net 15, the due date will set to 15 days from the current date and so on.
For all other statuses, enter the due date manually or using the calendar.
