AutoCount Plugin: Knock Off Plugin
Simplify Payments, Credit Notes & Debtors Matching — All in One Place
The AutoCount Easy Knock Off Plugin enhances your cash collection and accounts receivable workflow by consolidating multiple transaction types—outstanding invoices, credit notes, debit notes, and payments—into a single unified screen. This eliminates the need to jump between separate screens (like Official Receipt and Credit Note entry), helping cashiers and accountants reconcile and apply transactions faster and more accurately.

Core Features
Single Unified Knock Off Screen
View outstanding invoices, credit notes, and debit notes together on one interface. This gives users a complete picture of what’s owed and what’s due to be applied, reducing confusion and speeding up reconciliation workflows.
In traditional AutoCount workflows, credit notes and receipts live on separate screens — this plugin brings them together for convenience and accuracy.
Flexible Payment Application
Process customer payments alongside transaction matching to both invoices and credit notes.
Accept multiple payment types (cash, card, bank transfer).
Apply credit notes directly against invoices within the same screen.
This flexibility saves time and reduces manual steps in receivables processing — no more reopening transactions or manual bookkeeping after the fact.
Real Time Adjustment & Branch Filtering
Users can filter and apply knock off logic based on branch codes, making this ideal for multi branch organizations where collections and invoicing occur across different outlets.
Dynamic Amount Control
Modify applied amounts on the fly if you don’t want to clear the full amount at once. This is especially useful for:
Partial payments
Combining multiple credit notes against a large invoice
Adjusting deductions before finalizing the knock off
Improved AR/AP Workflows
While Easy Knock Off focuses on manual interactive matching, it also integrates smoothly with more advanced automation tools like AR/AP Batch Knock Off plugins (for full automation), Inter Company Knock Off, or Excel Import Knock Off tooling — all designed for larger scale or specialized workflows.
Why it matters?
Faster Cash Application
No need to open separate receipts or credit note entry screens — everything is in one place.
Reduced Errors
Minimizes manual copy‑and‑paste work between modules and spotting mismatched payments.
Better Visibility
See outstanding debit and credit transactions together so you never miss an amount due or refundable.
Useful for Complex Scenarios
Handles real‑world situations like FMCG returns, multi‑branch reconciliations, and partial payments.
Benefits & Business Value
The Easy Knock Off Plugin helps your business:
Reduce manual reconciliation time
Improve collection accuracy
Streamline month-end AR processes
Support multi branch & multi payment complexity
Whether you handle high volumes of credit notes, combine payments across invoices, or want a cleaner receivables process, this plugin brings clarity and efficiency.
Starting the Easy Knock Off Screen
Open AR Easy Knock Off (or AP Easy Knock Off if matching supplier credits/payments).
The screen shows aggregated data including:
- Outstanding invoices
- Unapplied credit notes
- Debit notes or contra balances
- Payments available for application
Selecting Branch & Customer Context
If your business uses branch codes (e.g., Ipoh, Penang, KL), choose the relevant branch to filter the listed transactions.
This helps users focus only on invoice/credit groups relevant to that outlet or customer segment.
Apply Knock Off
In the combined screen:
- Review credit note balances
- Select invoices to apply
- Add payment amount and choose payment method
- Adjust partial allocations if desired
- View running total of applied amounts
You can manually increase or reduce applied amounts before saving if needed.
Confirm & Save
Once you’re satisfied with the match:
Save the transaction — the system will:
- Apply matched payments and credits
- Generate corresponding AR/AP posting entries
- Update outstanding balances in real time
The applied results appear as knocked‑off transactions in AR/AP and cash/bank positions.
Access & Permissions
Make sure the plugin is enabled in AutoCount and that authorized users (e.g., AR/AP roles) have access rights assigned in General Maintenance > Access Right Maintenance.
Once rights are set, users will see Easy Knock Off options under Accounts Receivable (AR) and Accounts Payable (AP) menus.
