Enabling Check Billing Documents Can Post to FFA

This Feature Console page updates FinancialForce Accounting to validate that billing documents can post to Accounting successfully upon completion. By enabling this feature, you reduce the risk of completed billing documents failing to post in Accounting. You must enable this feature if your org uses the FinancialForce Billing Central to FinancialForce Accounting integration.

Work through the steps in the order shown.

  • For each automatic step, click Perform. When the step has completed, the Status changes from “Not Done” to “Done”.
  • For each manual step, follow the instructions on screen then click Mark As Done when the step is complete. More information about performing any manual steps is provided below.

When you have completed all the steps, use the Status slider in the Feature section to enable the feature.

Each time a billing document is marked as complete, information passes between Billing Central and Accounting via Foundations. When this feature is enabled, Accounting runs its validation at the same time that Billing Central performs tasks to complete the billing document such as calculating tax. The billing document's status only changes to "Complete" if both the Accounting validation and Billing Central's tasks complete successfully. For more information, see Messaging between Billing Central and Accounting.

Note:

When this feature is enabled, the Company field on billing documents is mandatory for the documents to be completed.
