Use this screen to launch the Rental Purchase program where you can create and update equipment rent-to-purchase contracts. Create an invoice that is billable to the customer as installment payments due. Revenue can be credited as rental revenue or as an accrual (versus sales revenue). The revenue is credited proportionately each month when the rental purchase cycle bill is produced. When the system produces the final rental purchase invoice, the equipment status is changed to a status of S-Sold, and the general ledger entry is made to remove the asset from its inventory account.

Access this program from the Operations menu. If your system is set up to require a user name and password to use this program, enter that information first.
Enter the customer number or name for the rental purchase. The order date and time default to today's date and time, but you can change them.
If you are creating a rental purchase for a customer who requires a job number for all transactions, the next screen in the sequence is the Job Selection screen.
