Understanding the Workfile

Effective management of the Billing Detail Workfile table (F4812),or the workfile, is fundamental to billing processes. The typical billing process includes generating the workfile, creating and printing invoices, and recording journal entries for income and receivables.

You create workfile transactions in the billing system in order to invoice customers, recognize revenue, and allocate costs.

You review and analyze workfile information to track the status of workfile transactions and accurately plan the invoicing cycle.
