Billing Document to Sales Invoice or Credit Note Integration

If you use FinancialForce Billing Central and FinancialForce Accounting, you can create sales invoices and sales credit notes from billing documents. For more information about how to set up the integration, see the section below.

After you have set up the integration, you can create sales invoices from billing documents of type "Invoice" and sales credit notes from billing documents of type "Credit Note". For more information, see the following:

• Creating Sales Invoices from Billing Documents
• Creating Sales Credit Notes from Billing Documents

The integration also supports automatically creating sales invoices and credit notes from billing documents in two ways:

• As soon as a billing document becomes eligible, for example, once it is completed. You can configure this functionality using the Billing Document to Sales Invoice custom setting. For more information, see Setting up Automatic Creation of Sales Documents from Billing Documents.
• Using a scheduled job in the background. You can schedule the job from the Accounting Task Launcher page. For more information, see Managing Scheduled Jobs.
