24 November 2014 Can anyone tell me, when we receive LC amount from a cutomer, should we credit the customer account or keep under LC account and transfer to the customer account when the LC is due.

if it is to be credit to the LC ledger and transferred only when due, what is the reason for the same.


24 November 2014 LC is the assurance. The amount as such is NOT received, what is received is the letter. So, no entry to be passed to customer's account.
A separate LC register be kept.
