Paying AP Vendors via Credit Cards

We would like to pay AP Vendors via credit cards/purchasing cards, rather than hard checks, to take advantage of rebates.  However, we also would like to track paid invoices through AP.  Does anyone use Sage 100 to do this?

  • Have you read the help files?  They explain how to enter credit card purchases in detail.

  • Depending on your version you can setup a credit card vendor and put the invoiced under the correct vendor and transfer them to the credit card vendor.

    Thanks all, I'm currently reviewing the help files and testing it out with the test data.  

    I'm assuming once you've transferred all your AP invoices to the credit card vendor, you just add normal credit card purchases to your credit card vendor to equal the CC statement, then payment the total as normal, to record the payment to the credit card vendor.  Our credit card payment is automatically debited from our bank account, so we could pay this as an electronic payment via AP.  Is this correct?

    Kevin.  I just spent 20 minutes looking (unsuccesfully) for the help file.  I would like to learn more about this, can you give me little more direction on where to locate the help file?

    THanks

    Help - Help Topics from the Sage 100 / MAS menu, then search the index.  

    (They should be installed but sometimes the help files are missing).

    When you search the index, lots of entries come up under credit card and most have to do with accepting credit cards as payment.  The last entry "credit cards - using in Sage Mas 90 and 200"  seems to be the best starting point.

    Personally I find the help files useful once you get to the issue, but frequently hard to get there.  Too bad manuals are extinct now.

    Might use the search tab in help.  Put in credit card transfer FAQ.   Scroll down until you see credit card transfers faqs.
