There are four transaction entry programs in Accounts Receivable, each designed to enter and maintain specific billing information.

This information is tracked throughout the system, thereby providing you with a detailed history of each customer’s account activity. The transaction entry programs available in AR are as follows:

• AR Invoice Entry

• AR Cash Receipts

• AR Finance Charge

• AR Release Retainage

Various setup options determine what type of data is entered in these programs, and in some cases, where they are entered. For example, you have the option to allow the posting of discounts and taxes, and if so, to indicate whether they will be entered during invoicing or payment application.
