I am still exploring the option of moving all my invoicing from a third party billing system to order entry. I have solved a number of items but have two questions I thought I could throw out.
1. It seems to me that the Category code drives the posting account number in the GL. Can that be split to multiple GL revenue accounts? I have items (services that we sell, not really products but I am setting them up as inventory items) that should be broken up to 2 or 3 seperate GL revenue accounts and not just one (as we are doing now). I am unsure how to achieve that same objective in OE when it pushes to GL.
2. We often have seperate "bill to" contacts and address in our current billing system. It does not appear that OE (or actually receivables) has the option to create multiple "bill to" contacts. My thoughts were to use the "ship to codes" as the bill to if I need an override from the base "bill to". I can many ship to codes. I thought I would be able to set the invoices specification file to pull the "ship to" instead of the "bill to" to accomplish this. Not every customer would need this, but we have one market segment (engineering consultants) that demand invoices get routed to seperate project managers (often different locations and of course, different names). Would that work for us? Or maybe someone has a different thought on it?
Thanks for the imput!
