Amounts

ReFIS Flow - software for digitising and approving documents

Amounts are the financial sums ReFIS works with. The company uses them to track money from the budget to the payment.

Which amounts ReFIS knows

Amount What it means Where you find it
budgeted what the company plans for Budget
requested someone has requested it, there is no agreement with the other party yet Other financial amounts
agreed it is covered by a purchase order or a contract Other financial amounts
delivered the goods or service have been delivered or received, usually based on a delivery note Other financial amounts
invoiced it is on an invoice or a proforma invoice Invoiced
payment it has been paid Payments

In reports and filters you choose between them together - for example, in Budget vs. actual you compare budgeted amounts with invoiced amounts or with payments.

Amounts that belong together are connected by matching - for example a payment and the invoiced amount it settles. If the same payment is recorded more than once, it is connected by linking.

Amount folders

Amounts are kept in amount folders - a folder is a list of amounts that belong together. ReFIS keeps two folders itself, and you cannot create or delete them: Invoiced and Payments. They hold the amounts from documents and from bank statements.

You create other folders yourself in the menu Money → Amount folders, so that you can track amounts separately - for example salaries separately from rents. You can create any number of such folders, and for each you enter the Folder type: “For budgeted amounts”, “For requested amounts”, “For agreed amounts” or “For delivered amounts”.

The folder type also determines access: budgeted folders are visible only to users with the right to the Budget module, the other three have their own right. A company that keeps purchase orders and contracts therefore does not need to have the Budget module enabled.

Amount type

Regardless of where an amount comes from, you enter its Amount type:

  • Income
  • Expenditure

In addition, for payments:

  • Deposit
  • Withdrawal

Recurring amounts

For an amount in a folder (budgeted, requested, agreed or delivered) that recurs regularly, you can set up a repetition (for example every month), which creates a series of amounts.
