We are beginning to evaluate LSMB and I am hoping some variation of the 
following will be possible.

In our current system we encounter this regularly and handle it the simplest 
way possible.
We credit checking and debit accounts payable for the vendor when the deposit 
check is written.
Later when the goods arrive with an invoice we process the material receipt 
which credits AP Vendor and debits inventory. If there is a remaining balance 
on the invoice we pay it (Credit checking, debit AP vendor)
The advantage is that payments to the vendor always go into the vendor AP 
account so we don't have to remember to check for other entries in a separate 
clearing or an deposit asset account. The trick is associating the first 
deposit payment with the later invoice. Is there a tricky way to do this in 1.2 
or must we wait for 1.3?

Best regards,
Paul Bente
