Hi
I am using Sage Line 50 2009, version 15 (15.01.18.0190 being precise) and I need to contra off supplier invoices against customer invoices. How would i do that? The help option and previous entries on this forum suggest Tools>Contra Entries but i dont have this option on my version. Do i just have to write off the transactions for both with the same date, so VAT is adjusted, journal eg Cr Expense Dr Income to wipe out the P&L implications off the reversals?

Thanks for any help

Contras have problems if you are using VAT cash accounting. If this is the case, I would use petty cash to pay and receive payment to do the transaction.

Contra entries is the second option in the tools menu. Perhgaps you do not have access rights, try logging in as manager.
