Job-related invoices, credit notes, and debit notes
You can enter invoices that are either job-related invoices or not job-related — you cannot enter a mixed invoice.
To enter a Project and Job Costing invoice, you must:
- Select the Project and Job Costing option.
- Identify the contract, project, and category for each detail you enter.
When you post job-related invoices, credit notes, and debit notes, Accounts Payable updates the project in Project and Job Costing. It also creates general ledger journal entries to update the Work-In-Progress and Payables Control accounts.
Multicurrency information (multicurrency ledgers only)
If you use multicurrency accounting, you enter amounts in the Invoice Entry form in the vendor's currency.
When you enter a vendor number, the vendor's currency code is displayed on the Document tab. If the vendor does not use the functional currency, you also see a Rates tab that you can use if you need to change exchange rate information.
When you are entering a credit note or debit note for a specific invoice, the original exchange rate used for the invoice is also displayed on the Rates tab.
Intercompany Transactions Invoices
If this is an ICT company, the following fields are displayed on the A/P Invoice Entry Document tab:
- Originator (in the header)
- Destination (in the detail grid)
- Route No. and Description (in the detail grid)
Posting an ICT batch creates an A/P batch in the originating company's Accounts Payable ledger (for posting to vendor accounts), and creates an ICT G/L batch in the ICT company.
