If you have added LINKED BINGO to your operations there is yet another expense that is allocated towards your eGaming. Depending on which provider you use, the process for entering those payments varies.
Arrow and Pilot are both providers that invoice you monthly. And all of your premises will be included on one invoice. You will receive an invoice near the beginning of each month for the previous month's activity. That invoice's payment will ALWAYS be entered under the LINKED BINGO expense tab. Doing so will ensure that your Line 13 of the Schedule F will be accurate.
For Arrow and Pilot you will take the following steps to enter in your payment:
BANKING - EXPENSES - choose the LINKED BINGO expense tab.
From there, you will use the invoice that you received to enter in the date range (previous month's 1st & last day) and click the red box: CALCULATE.
CGME is going to calculate that invoice date range and the breakdown will be shown to the right. These amounts should be confirmed with the paper invoice you received from Pilot, Arrow, or Diamond Games.
Once confirmed, you'll click SELECT ROWS. It's best to use the SELECT ROWS feature as it's too easy to make a mistake if you are trying to manually check the boxes off.
