Amount
Enter the Amount of the payment in this field.  All payment entries are considered negative.  You do not have to enter the minus sign however.  The amount will be made negative after leaving the field.

Doctor
If the payment should be credited to a particular doctor you may select that doctor from the Doctor combo box.  If you do not want any particular doctor to receive credit select the "..Not Assigned" choice from the Doctor combo box. When you select “Not Assigned” for the doctor on the Payment Entry screen, the amount of the payment will be added to the Total Office total on the Day Sheet, but not to any individual doctor’s total.  So if there is a discrepancy between the Total Office total and the sum of all the individual doctor’s totals, consider looking into “Not Assigned” as the reason.

Deposit File
Diamond Dental Software allows you to maintain multiple bank deposit files if you choose.  Use the Deposit File combo box to select the deposit file to which this payment will be credited.

Deposit Status Option Box
The Deposit Status option box allows you to set or modify the deposit status of this payment.  The Deposit Status is set automatically by the Bank Deposit printing program and usually there is no need for you to modify the status.  Three options are possible.  These will now be discussed.

For Deposit and Deposited
These two options are functionally identical in the program. There was a distinction in an earlier version of the program, but now, both For Deposit and Deposited simply mean the payment is eligible to be recorded into the Bank Deposit file.  Both are distinct from the option of No Deposit discussed below.

No Deposit
Use this choice to indicate that you do not want this payment to be printed on the Bank Deposit Slip or Report.
