Transferring debtor balances

Use the Transfer Debtor Balances program to transfer debtor balances from one financial database to another.
For example, if your organisation has more than one financial entity, such as a swimming school which bills separately to the main organisation, you may want only the main organisation to collect the owed fees. You can transfer the balance owed from the swimming school so it appears on the debtors' statements from your main organisation.

Note: The Transfer Debtor Balances program does not run automatically; you need to run it each time you want to transfer balances.

Also see Synergetic Financial Configuration - Debtors tab in the Finance manual.
