how to add Prepayment to Customer in Peachtree with help of API

Question

hi, 
 from last few days i am searching on how to add prepayment to customers in Peachtree, 
 I need to replicate below mentioned functionality of Sage 50 in my app using API - Receive Money ~> Receive Money from Customer 
 - select customer 
 - check the prepayment checkbox. 
 - save the payment 
 it will generate an invoice in negative amount, and when we try to view that invoice system says "This is a beginning balance or a prepayment you can not view it." 
 
 I want to do the same thing in my application using Sage API. 
 Right now i can do the same thing by using PeachwServer.dll by passing perpayment as TRUE and invoice amount in negative, but I want to achieve this functionality while using API 
 Please let me know how i can do the same thing by using Peachtree API 
 
 Thanks

If you are using the .NET API, you need to create an object that is an AdvanceReceipt. (eg var receipt = company.Factories.AdvanceReceiptFactory.Create();) Add the customer reference, a receipt line, the amount on the line and whatever else is needed to pass validation (which I don't know off the top of my head), maybe the reference number.

The .NET SDK is designed to reflect amounts as you would see them in the product. Since a Prepayment Receipt shows a positive number, you'd have a positive number for the Amount in an AdvanceReceipt.
