SOE Billing Parameters

The following control maintenance records belong to the SOE (Sales Order Entry) category and apply to billing parameters.

Progress Billing Setup

Define incremental billing parameters by branch. ClosedMore

Important: We recommend creating a separate G/L Account through G/L Account Maintenance specifically for Progress Billing. Additionally, we recommend a separate ship via so Progress Billing invoices can be identified easily on the Sales Order Status tab.

Options*

Progress Billing Product - Enter the miscellaneous charge product that should be used on Progress Billing Invoices.

Progress Billing G/L Account - (View Only) The general ledger account to which to post each Progress Billing and Shipment when processed.

Note: This field is not editable. The system populates this field based on the Progress Billing Product you enter. If the G/L account is not what you expect, we recommend reviewing the Progress Billing Product (miscellaneous charge product) record for the product you selected. The G/L Account/Product Type field displays the currently assigned G/L Account.

Progress Billing Ship Via - Enter the default ship via to be used for all Progress Billed Invoices.

Display Orders with Pending Shipments in PBQ - Indicate if you want orders that have shipments still to be sent listed when populating the Progress Billing Queue.

 

Determine by branch how to handle invoice and order summary printing. Use the following column options:

  • Branch / Territory - Enter the branch you want to define printing options for.

  • Print Shipment Invoice - Indicate if you want to print shipment invoices. The standard printer hierarchy applies for the order.

  • Print Product Detail - Indicate if you want to print order details on the Progress Billing Invoice. The order detail includes all items from the original order. The standard printer hierarchy applies for the order.
