Equipment Invoiceing: Custom Accounting

Use the Custom Accounting tab to perform any additional accounting entries related to the invoice that are not already performed as part of the sale.

To open the Custom Accounting tab, hover over a Reference Number on the Equipment Invoicing screen and select View or Edit from the pop-up menu, or click the Need to create a new invoice? Click here to add link. Selecting the Reference Number also opens the listing.

The system includes any Cost entries entered on this screen in the unit cost, if automatic costing has been previously activated.

If the selected invoice was created by converting an equipment quote, custom accounting entries created as a result of the Margin Programs, Margin Additional Costs, or Margin Reserves from the corresponding Margin Worksheet are protected.

The Information fields on the Custom Accounting tab are:
