GL Distribution Page

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

 

The GL Distribution Page provides a grid where you can enter and amend the general ledger accounts to which the recurring invoice transaction is to be posted. The default accounts come from the vendor record.  

 

The grid is used in instances where you want to record the amount of your payables into different accounts in order to allocate the cost to different departments. This is useful especially when your business is concerned with monitoring activities per department.
