 into it. So we're going to finalize the estimate creating the sales order and then from the sales order, we're going to connect to the receive payment. However, when we go to the receive payment, we're then going to turn on the pre payment feature so that we end up with a positive liability instead of a negative receivable. All right, let's do it. Customers, let's go into the estimate. And we're going to create a sales order. This is a sales order. So the estimate has been copied to the sales order. Good. That looks good. It's telling us we don't have any inventory on hand, which is fine because we're going to use this simply to request and then we'll use the sales order to make the bill at a future point as well because we're going to have to do the custom order from the vendor for this particular customer that wants this kind of airbrush or whatever. So then it says you can tell QuickBooks to block any transactions to what would result in a negative. Okay, so let's let's do it. This is going to be as of 060127. Let's say 0602 just so we can have a different one day up and so everything looks good. This is pulling in. We have the same kind of numbers down here, but like with the estimate, nothing new was really happening in terms of the financial statements. No journal entry, right? Same thing sales order, no journal entry happening internal document. If I save it and close it, we can see then we have the estimate we get the sales order from an internal perspective, we could now say the sales orders locked in, I'm then going to collect or get the prepayment if that's applicable, or we would continue on doing the job or whatever we're going to do from here. And in our case, we want to collect the deposit from the customer. So we're going to go into here. And I'm going to go to the receive payment to connect it. Now when I do that, it says receive customer payment on sales orders, you can now receive prepayments from your customers and add them to your current liability account. All you need to do is go to preferences and select prepayment settings. So we could go there directly from here. And that takes us to the prepayments company preferences. If you didn't get that pop up for whatever reason and you or you just want to go there directly, edit drop down preferences, and then payments on the left, you want the company preferences as opposed to the my preferences. If you don't have the prepayments thing on the right hand side, you might not have the latest version or the enterprise version. They might roll this out. You would think possibly to all the desktop versions. But if you don't have it, you won't see this thing on the right, right? So if you do, then you got the prepayments over here. So we'll select that we're going to turn on the prepayments. And then it says select a current liability account to record your pre pre payments as a liability has to be a liability account because that's the point. We're collecting something before we earn the revenue. We don't want to record this revenue. We don't want to record it as a negative receivable. We want to record it as a liability, usually a current liability. So if I select the drop down, let's add a new account. And I'm just going to call it customer deposit. Notice the default is as a current liability type of account. We could call it unearned revenue, which I might change to and do next time, because I think that's more appropriate in us in a subscription model situation. Customer deposit seems appropriate in this situation when we're getting an advanced deposit on the work that we're going to basically complete later. So I'm going to keep it at that. Save it. The name exists because I was messing with it before I'll put a dot next to it. And I'm going to say, okay, let's do it. So there it is. And then it's going to close all the windows, I think, which is annoying. Yeah, quick. It's going to ah, man, quick books. Now you're going to make me open it. Okay, whatever. Let's go to the reports and open up all the stuff again. Balance sheet company financial balance sheet customized going from 01, 01, 2, 7, 12, 31, 2, 7, fonts and the numbers changing it to 14. Is that okay? It is fine. Then okay. Maximize reports, drop down company and financial profit and loss change in the range 01, 01, 2, 7, 2, 0, 6, 30, 2, 7. And oh, no, yeah, that's right. And then I want to go from total to months and then go to the customized fonts and numbers and change it to 14, 2. Okay. Yes. Okay. And then company drop down. Let's open that home page back up. All right. And so there's our home page. So now we went from the estimate to the sales order and now we're trying to create a receive payment, but we didn't finish it yet because we had to turn on the prepayment. And now we have a liability account to post it to instead of a negative accounts receivable. So let's go back to the customer center customer center. They're hanging out over there by the water cooler. The customers are they're just chilling. So we're going to go over here and we're going to say let's go into the sales order again. And let's say we're going to receive a payment. So now it says you won't be able to make any changes to this prepayment once you apply it to an invoice. So be careful if you need to change it, then you're going to have to actually delete it. I think you can still I believe delete it if you needed to and then do it again. But you can't just adjust it. So you have to be, you know, be careful, be careful. So now this form looks like the other receive payment form. But now it has this prepayment thing on it. So what does the form usually do when you receive payment or customer payment form? It usually decreases accounts receivable. That's what we know that form always does. This one, however, does not because it's marked with the prepayment. And that means it's going to hit the liability account that we selected, which is the customer deposit note down here to that under the last method that we used, we didn't have anything down here. And therefore when I selected like a $50 deposit, there was nothing to apply it to because we didn't have an invoice. We still don't have an invoice. What we do have is a sales order. You don't usually apply a payment to a sales order because the sales order is an internal document. But QuickBooks is using that sales order, kind of like it's an invoice, so that we can apply the payment out to the sales order here. So that's kind of how it's how it's working. If I go back to my, my worksheet on this side, I can say, okay, this time we have a receipt payment form. And what's happening with the receipt payment? Well, cash is going to go up because we're getting a deposit. And I created this other account called customer deposit now. So now we have this customer deposit account that I have added now. And that's going to be 50 and negative 50. So if I post that cash is going to go up by 50 this time, which is right. And then here's the key, the customer deposit is going to go up. The customer deposit is not revenue. Because even though we got cash, we haven't yet earned it. And it's also not a negative receivable, because we don't want it because it should be a liability, we owe the money back to the customer at this point in time, or we owe the customer the work under the old method. It was a negative receivable that was kind of the glitch in the system, even though
