Hi all - how do you deal with Proforma Bills in your system? Looking at something that can track bills pending a proper VAT bill and allow us to link a payment/deposit.

I have seen a couple of different solutions, one was just using the vendor prepayments functionality (works quite well in most cases) - outside of that you can just book the bill up front (you should know the VAT rate and what the budget is) and do partial receipts as you go - finally another transaction can be customised, e.g. check or similar but this requires massive effort (seen it for Russian localisation once.) Note the VAT rules may require you to have VAT on a deposit in some countries and additional requirements may be imposed on prepayments/deposits in general.
