Purpose

The purpose of this quick reference guide is to step through the process of creating an Accounting Invoice Type. When first creating the records to reflect the Accounting dimensions within the external Accounting system, you will need to manually create all of the valid Accounting Invoice Types. The Accounting Invoice Type needs to match the Record Types of Invoice Items from 2cloudnine Payroll, which by default comprise of the following:
  1. Allowance
  2. Client Paid Expense
  3. Expense
  4. Payment
  5. Payroll Services Fee
  6. Perm Fee
  7. Project Services Fee
  8. Retainer Fee
  9. Temp To Perm Fee
When Accounting Invoices are created, they inherit the Record Type from the Invoice Items they are created from, as listed above. They are used to split Invoice Record Types into Accounting Invoice Lines. The intended audience for this document is System Administrators / Standard Users.
