Invoice Linking in TDES001
Enhancement Summary – Release 11.5
Introduction
In Release 11.5, Qbyte Financial has introduced enhanced invoice linking capabilities. This will allow for users to see all lines coded to an invoice through its lifecycle.
Screen
Users can link any line coded in the Voucher Entry screen to an invoice using the Source Invoice block.
Enter the following information in the Source Invoice block. All fields will require entry in order to link to an invoice:
IN THIS FIELD... | ENTER THIS INFORMATION... |
---|---|
BA |
|
Invc Num |
|
Invc Date |
|
Payable or Receivable Code |
|
Process
Functionality will allow linking individual lines in a voucher to a specific invoice. Once each line is coded, click the Src Inv button to link to an invoice. Users can link lines to an invoice at any point in entering the voucher. When entering an invoice, the source invoice that is created and linked on the invoice line will carry forward to all subsequent offset lines, unless overridden.
Once a line has been linked to an invoice, and the voucher is saved, users can identify which invoice the line is linked to via the following fields:
All lines on a voucher have the option to exclude linking to an invoice. However, all invoices entered on a voucher must balance to $0 upon saving the voucher, or the voucher will remain in Deferred status.
Validations

If one or more invoices on a voucher do not balance to $0, the following error will arise upon saving the voucher. The voucher will also be in a Deferred status until all lines linked to that invoice balance to $0:
If attempting to link to an invoice that does not exist, the following error will arise upon saving the voucher. The error will arise once for each line that is linked to an invoice that does not exist:
