How to Configure the “Bill To Party As” Option in Sale Bill?
In this tutorial, we'll explore the "Bill to Party As" option in Logic ERP—an important configuration that determines how and where the bill amount is posted in the customer ledger.
Access Sales Voucher Configuration
Open the Sales Voucher Configuration window.
Select the relevant billing series.
Under "Other Settings - 1", click on "Other Settings".
Then navigate to "Defaults - 1".
Locate the option labeled as:
"Bill to Party As"
which offers three different modes of customer ledger posting.
Default
A/c Entry Custome
Customer
Let’s go through them one by one:
Bill to Party As: "Default"
This mode uses the predefined default customer account to post credit entries automatically.
Example:
Create a sale bill
Enter items and move to Payment screen
Enter ₹1,000 as Credit and the rest as Cash
Save the voucher
Check Journal Report:
The system posts the ₹1,000 credit to the default customer account defined in the configuration.
Use Case: When the business wants consistent posting to one master account for all retail sales.
Bill to Party As: "A/c Entry Customer"
This option ensures that the credit amount is posted to the Account Entry Customer selected during billing—not the retail customer on the screen.
Example:
On the billing screen:
Select an A/c Entry Customer
Then select a Retail Customer
Complete the bill and save
Check Journal Report:
The system posts the credit to the Account Entry Customer only.
Use Case: Useful when you bill to walk-in customers but want credit to go to a corporate/centralized account.
Bill to Party As: "Customer"
In this mode, the credit is directly posted to the Retail Customer selected on the billing screen—ignoring any other account settings.
Example:
Select a Retail Customer
Complete the billing as usual
Check Journal Report:
The system posts the credit directly to the selected Retail Customer account.
Use Case: When businesses need transaction-level tracking for each customer individually.
