If you have the ability to preview a message before opening it (like in Lotus Notes, and Microsoft Outlook) , the receipt will not be sent back.  You can't NOT send the receipt back to the sender once you have opened it.  Some organizations, companies etc shut off the outgoing receipt so that is the only way a sender would not receive the receipt.  It is a good safety mechanism and more companies should be aware of this to protect employees, or students, or whatever.

Both terms are different ways of saying the same thing...they both mean to "acquire the greatest quality, in the greatest quantity for the least amount of monetary expenditure".  This of course means that there will be a subjective judgment performed by the purchaser as to what quality is acceptable at what price.

Out of context, they just mean left (debit) or right (credit) on the ledger.\n\nAccounting uses 5 types of accounts. 3 are balance sheet accounts (asset, liability and owners equity accounts) and 2 are income statement accounts (revenue and expense accounts). \n\nThe balance sheet has asset accounts on the left and liability and owners equity accounts on the right.  The income statement has revenue accounts and expense accounts.  Think of income statement accounts as sub-accounts in the owners equity section of the balance sheet and the debits and credits will make more sense.\n\nAsset accounts normally have a debit balance, so debits increase an asset account and credits decrease an asset account.\n\nLiabilities and owners equity accounts normally have a credit balance, so credits increase a liability or equity account and debits decrease a liability or owners equity account.\n\nThe basic accounting formula that must hold true at all times is:\n\nAssets = Liabilities + Owners equity  \n\n(that's why it's called a balance sheet!)\n\nAll accounting transactions are recorded using double entry bookkeeping where the total of the debits must equal the total of the credits.  One side of a transaction may increase one asset while decreasing another. This would happen when cash (an asset) is paid for inventory (another asset). Inventory is debited and cash is credited.  If the company buys inventory on credit, then the transaction would be: Inventory is debited and Accounts Payable is credited. Accounts Payable is a liability account. When that bill gets paid: Accounts payable is debited and cash is credited.\n\nRevenue increases owners equity, so a revenue item is a credit. Expenses decrease owners equity, so an expense item is a debit. If expenses exceed revenues for a period, it is a loss and a net debit. (It reduces owners equity) If revenues exceed expenses for a period, it is a profit and a net credit. (It increases owners equity.)

In short a Debit Note is used to deduct funds from your Customer's account when the deduction has no relationship to an Order or any Service rendered.\n\ninvoice \nDefinition\n\nA bill issued by one who has provided products and/or services to a customer. In asset-based lending, invoice means account receivable. \n\nAny payment made must be supported by a source document. If you purchase any goods or services for cash, you should receive a till slip or other source document. If the purchases or payment was made out of the petty cash float, these source documents will be captured and posted to the ledger in the petty cash payments journal. In some businesses where a person is entrusted with petty cash, a petty cash voucher is normally written out and authorised to remove or take any money out of the petty cash float. This is important in the case where some other person is handed the money to do the purchase on behalf of the petty cashier. An example of petty cash vouchers is as follows:

Tab is just a synonym for bill.  So, instead of running up a bill, you can run up a tab.  Same thing.

Was the deposit in cash?  If it was a check or money order, obviously you could present the cancelled item for verification of the correct amount.  Good luck.  You would think that the stamp in the passbook, which the bank entered, would be as good as a receipt, but I don't know for certain.  Actually, I didn't know they still issued passbooks.
