    • Processing and Recording of payment transactions in the Practice to enable the tracking of Patient transactions.
    • Speeding up checkout time.
    • Save unnecessary costs of receipt books by using the receipt option of the Cash Register module.

    • End the Cash Register session after collecting all the payments for the day so that the day becomes an auditable unit.
    • At the end of the session, the Cashier / Receptionist counts all payments received for the day for reconciliation with the system.

Creating a Creditor/Supplier

By Creating a new Creditor/Supplier the user creates an account on the GoodX System. With the account, a user can document goods and services that the Practice receives from the Creditor. An organisation, business, or individual of a legal type who has given a Practice product, service, or financial loan is referred to as a Creditor.

Creditor

A creditor is a legal entity, a firm, or a person who has given a practice products, services, or a monetary loan. The party who has given a product or service and is owed money by one or more debtors is referred to as a creditor. After a creditor has delivered the products or provided the service, payment is due on the agreed-upon date.

Creditor Account Enquiries

Each Creditor has an account with all the transactions that have been done on the Creditor's account. The account enquiry is quick access to the overview of a Creditors account with all the transactions. Account Enquiries assist the practice to see what payments have been made to the Creditor, the outstanding payments as well as the current balance on the Creditor's account etc.
