Both invoices and cash receipts are outstanding

If both invoices and cash receipts are outstanding, this indicates that when an invoice was paid, the person entering the invoice forgot to apply it to a specific invoice. Alternately, the cash receipt could represent a retainer for the client and when the work was performed and billed, the person issuing the invoice forgot to apply the invoice to the outstanding cash receipt. If the cash receipt was issued in the current period and the invoice was issued in the current or prior period, you can modify the cash receipt by clicking Cash Receipts on the Process menu. If the cash receipt was issued in a prior period, it is necessary to perform account reconciliation. Show me
