![Make Deposit Page](/files/-M2toTVofG1DnoHjHRNF)

{% hint style="info" %}
Before we apply any amount, decide if you want to apply this automatically or not. If you choose to apply automatically, then, UNOSOF shall always try to apply the maximum amount possible to the oldest invoices first.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

![](/files/-MWPfp_G6mMwShUuDd75)

In case, it is desired to apply the deposit to only specific invoices that are not necessarily the oldest. Then, you need to checkmark "Disable Auto Apply".

To proceed to make a deposit, Select **Enter a New Deposit** from the drop-down menu in the center of the page.

**Select the invoices** you would like to apply the deposit ($) to,  by checking the boxes "x" as shown in the picture.&#x20;

Please note:

1. The **Apply Amount** field (next to the Ledger) will show the total amount applied to this deposit.
2. The system will show the amount ($) applied to each invoice in the "**Applied"** column. You can edit this number to the desired value.
3. The **Balance left** column will detail if there's a pending amount to be paid in each invoice.

To enter **Commission** or **Bank Charges,** find the grey box on the bottom right of the page.

Check the boxes and edit the amount ($) of commissions or bank charges.

{% hint style="info" %}
&#x20;Some companies, do not manage bank charges as a cost, they actually apply credit notes instead,  in order to post these to the SRI.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="danger" %}
Note: If there is any bank charges or commission,  the **Deposit Amount** should show the ledger amount minus any bank charge and/or commission.\
&#x20;The applied amount is how much money gets applied to the invoices without bank charges.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

![ledger - bank charge = deposit amount](/files/-M5bJ8p8WcOl0PwqPTVB)

{% hint style="info" %}
Some companies manage a Multi-RUC structure. In that case, we recommend applying the deposit amounts specifically to the company where you wish to distribute the money too, see the input fields in the blue bar.
{% endhint %}
