Chapter 7 – Debtor Maintenance

Chapter 7.3 – A/R Invoice Entry

A/R Invoice Entry is different from Sales Invoice although they are both involving in debtors:

  • A/R Invoice Entry is an Accounting entry (no bill printing), whereas Sales Invoice is a billing document (Invoice can be printed).
  • A/R Invoice Entry will automatically update the related G/L accounts upon save. Sales Invoice will post the entries to A/R Invoice Entry and update the related G/L accounts upon save, depending on the option setting.
  • A/R Invoice Entry is mainly used when you are not using an Invoicing system.

To create a new A/R Invoice Entry, go to A/R > A/R Invoice Entry.
