The Advanced Deposits Report gives you a running total of all Deposits or payment taken on folios for bookings before the check in date. 

Therefore, for a payment to appear on this report, it must have been applied to the folio of a future booking. See Add Payments

When a payment is made to a folio in advance of the arrival date, the transaction is automatically added to this Report. You can find details of the payments taken on the Transactions Report.

Also, since the payments are completed transactions, they will also appear on the Revenue Report.

The Advanced Deposits Report lists each booking with an advanced payments with the guest name, date of charge, guest name, arrival date, description and charge amount. This report is not useful for trying to find out what 'was' an Advanced Deposit for a prior date. It is meant to be run for 'today' and the future only.

Since the report keeps a running total of advanced deposits, the bookings will "drop off" the report when the booking checks in and is no longer in the future .If you have posted and the booking is in the future, then it will  appear on your Advanced Deposits Report (ARD). or if the Folio for the advanced Payment is in balance - the Payment taken has been balanced by an Item charged to the Folio, making the Folio Balance : $0.  The folio being in balance is one of the ways that this report has been left simpler and focused, as most properties don't wish the ARD to show future folios where the Charge has been equaled by the Payment.  If you need to find all Payments on future folios - regardless of whether payment has been made - then use the Item Analysis report for that, as it will show the folios with Payments taken that have caused those folios to be in balance. 

The running total of Advanced Deposits on this report is also displayed on the Manager's Report.
