Changes brought in PDC module:
In earlier pdc module, when a payment is registered, a pdc record would be created in draft state and the payment would get posted. Also, the invoice will become paid. The pdc could be submitted later. In the new pdc module, a field called Type has been added, it can be either: regular or pdc. The payment is posted, when submit button in corresponding pdc is clicked.
- If type is Regular, when payment is registered, a pdc record would get created and submitted. The payment will get posted and the invoice will become paid.
- If type is PDC, when payment is registered, a pdc record would get created in draft state. The payment will not be posted and will also be in draft The invoice will remain in open state. Now, when the corresponding draft pdc is submitted, the payment would get posted and invoice will become paid.
In earlier pdc module, when pdc was cleared or rejected, a journal entry will be created in draft state. In the new pdc module, when pdc is cleared or rejected, the journal entry will get created and become posted.
