Use bank receipts to receive money into your bank account in Sage 50 Accounts, without creating a customer account. For example, a one-off sale.  

When you post a receipt, the transaction type depends on the account type in the bank record.

The transactions appear on the audit trail as follows:

• BR - Receipt from a bank account
• CR - Receipt from a cash account
• VR - Receipt from a credit card account
