The process for recording payment on jobs that were financed by the customer is intended to:
- Allow us to show on the customer invoice the amount of their invoice balance that was financed through a third-party company.
- Record the actual payment amount received and dealer fee charged by the finance company in ServiceTitan, and export these to Intacct.
- Allow for finance company dealer fees to be shown as part of Job Costing in ServiceTitan, giving us a more accurate understanding of a financed job's profitability.
Workflow Steps
There are 3 tasks involved in the full workflow process:
- Recording payment on the original installation invoice- This is done using the "Paid Using Third Party Financing" Payment type
- Creating an adjustment invoice to shift the amount of the financing to the finance company customer account
- Recording the funded amount and dealer fee as payments on the adjustment invoice
The last 2 steps in the process will begin when the funded amount from the finance company appears on the daily Bank Deposit report received by the branch from Shared Services Accounting.
