PEACHTREE COMPLETE 2009
WORKSHOP 5: PART A – MARS COMPANY
Recording Transactions in the Sales, Receipts, Purchases, and Payments Journals
This workshop adds to Peachtree skills learned in Workshops 1 through 4, so complete those workshops before beginning this one.
In this workshop you learn to use the Customer and Vendor modules of Peachtree. You will first learn to record customer sales and cash receipt transactions before moving on to vendor bill and payment transactions. You will also learn to print aged receivables and aged payables reports.
You will need to download the Mars Company data file for Peachtree 2009 from the MyAccountingLab website before beginning this workshop. Refer to the Installing Peachtree Complete Accounting and Student Data Files document for instructions on downloading this file.
We next provide information on using the Customer and Vendor modules of Peachtree.
The Customer module is used to manage customer accounts and to record sales invoice, sales return, and cash receipt transactions. The Customer & Sales Center for this module is activated by clicking this
button on the navigation bar. This center contains icons that access customer transactions windows. Use this center whenever you are asked to complete a customer task.
Customer Module
You will be recording customer sales invoices, sales returns, and cash receipts in this workshop. Sales invoices are posted through the Sales/Invoicing window; sales returns through the Credit Memos window; and cash receipts through the Receipts window. We will show you how to open these windows later.
The customer module of Peachtree handles all the tedious posting steps involving accounts receivables. This means that posting transactions in the Sales/Invoicing and Credit Memos windows automatically posts transactions to the sales journal and accounts receivable subsidiary

ledger. Posting transactions in the Receipts window automatically posts transactions to the cash receipts journal and accounts receivable subsidiary ledger. Finally, posting transactions in either window automatically integrates those transactions with general ledger accounts managed by the general ledger module.
Because the software automatically updates a customer’s accounts receivable subsidiary ledger, you can easily print an Aged Receivables report (i.e., a computerized version of the schedule of accounts receivable). We will show you how to do this later.
Computerized Aged Receivable Report
Mars Company’s Aged Receivables report at February 29, 2008 appears next. The company offers all its customers the payment terms of 2/10, n/30.
The Vendor module is used to manage vendor accounts and to record vendor bill, return, and payment transactions. The center is activated by
clicking this button on the navigation bar. This center contains icons for opening transactions windows that form the
Vendor Module

vendor module of the software. Use this center whenever you are asked to complete a vendor task.
You will record vendor bills, returns, and payments in this workshop. Vendor bills are posted through the Purchases/Receive Inventory window; vendor returns through the Vendor Credit Memos window; and payments through the Payments window. We will show you how to open these windows later.
Like the customer module, the vendor module handles all the tedious posting steps involving accounts payable transactions. This means that posting transactions in the Purchases/Receive Inventory and Vendor Credit Memos windows automatically posts transactions to the purchases journal and accounts payable subsidiary ledger. Posting transactions in the Payments window automatically posts transactions to the cash disbursements journal and accounts payable subsidiary ledger. Finally, posting transactions in either window automatically integrates those transactions with general ledger accounts managed by the general ledger module.
Because the software automatically updates a vendor’s accounts receivable subsidiary ledger, you can easily print an Aged Payables report (i.e., a computerized version of the schedule of accounts payable). We will show you how to do this later.
Computerized Aged Payables Report
Mars Company’s Aged Payables report at February 29, 2008 appears next.

Peachtree Complete 2009 Workshop 5: Part A – Mars Company Page 7
14. The Accounting Behind the Screens window shows that the first item on the invoice will post a credit of $100.00 to general ledger account 4110 Sales. When you scroll to the bottom of the window you will see that the entire invoice will post a debit of $800.00 to general ledger account 1120 Accounts Receivable.
You also see that the transaction will post an entry to be calculated to accounts 5050 Cost of Goods Sold and 1130 Inventory. This is because Peachtree uses a perpetual inventory system and will look to the Inventory module when posting this transaction to determine the cost of the inventory sold. This amount will then be debited to costs of goods sold and credited to inventory.
15. Click OK to close the Accounting Behind the Screens window and return to the Sales/Invoicing window.
Correcting a Sale invoice Prior to Posting

If you are entering multiple invoices before printing then clicking the Save icon on the window’s toolbar will post an invoice.
21. You do not need to print invoices unless instructed to do so by your professor because the reports you print at the end of the workshop will document your work. However, if you need to print invoices then you can record multiple invoices and print them altogether by clicking the dropdown list on the Print icon and choosing Select Invoices to Print. In the window illustrated next, you can set options for printing unprinted or previously printed invoices. You can also mark individual invoices for printing.
