Example 1 - Invoicing Only

When you process invoicing only, this information is true:

  • The journal generation control is 1 (invoicing only).

  • Revenue recognition does not apply.

  • The system calculates the same amount for actual revenue and accounts receivable.

  • The system calculates the amounts for revenue and accounts receivable simultaneously.

  • The RC AAI designates the accounts receivable account.

For example, if the cost for a workfile transaction is 100.00 and the markup is 15 percent, the amounts for the invoice and accounts receivable are 115.00. The system creates these journal entries:

Account

Debit

Credit

Accounts receivable

115.00

Actual revenue

(115.00)

The RC AAI directs the system to the accounts receivable account. Billing AAI table number 4811 directs the system to the base rules for the actual revenue account.
