AR invoice detail
The Invoice Detail folder contains the detail lines for your AR invoices.
The Invoice Detail window shows the detail for an individual detail line.
You can edit the Description and Memo for any AR invoice. If the AR invoice is unmerged, you can edit all editable detail fields. If the AR invoice is merged but not merged to GL, you can edit the Description, Item Tax Category, GL Accounts, Invoice Detail Attributes, and Memo fields. If the AR invoiced is merged and merged to GL, you can edit the Description, Item Tax Category, Invoice Detail Attributes, and Memo fields. For voided or reversal invoices, you can only edit the Description and Memo fields.
The ARCode on a detail line affects the detail line in the following ways:
- Categorizes the detail line for reporting purposes.
- Provides masks for deriving GL account numbers for the sales, cost, and inventory accounts.
- Controls whether the detail line is subject to sales tax.
- Controls whether the detail line is eligible for a discount.
An invoice detail line is considered to have invalid GL if any of the following is true:
- The sales account is blank or invalid.
- The cost is non-zero and the cost account is blank or invalid.
- The cost is non-zero and the inventory account is blank or invalid.
When you have a detail line record open, you can click to drill down to the AR invoice that contains the detail line.
Purpose
The Sales Analysis report helps you measure and track sales performance. Using its flexible sorting, subtotaling, and totaling options, you can use the report to analyze sales from a variety of perspectives.
Content
When the report is run showing invoice detail, for each detail line included on the report, the report shows:
- invoice or GL date
- invoice number
- ARCode
- customer code
- salesperson
- quantity sold
- amount of sale.
(If you run the report and do not include detail, the report only shows grand totals for quantity and amount. If you do not include detail but do specify a subtotal option, the report also shows quantity and amount for each subtotal group.)
In addition, you can include information for one or more of the following:
- unmerged invoices not on hold
- credits
- voids.
The following totals appear on the report:
- subtotals (optional, by sort option)
- grand totals.
