Using Analysis Items in the Billing Document Integration

If you are using the Billing Document to Transaction integration, you can add Foundations analysis item fields to billing document headers and lines. The analysis item fields appear in the Analysis Information sections on the following objects:

  • Billing Document
  • Billing Document Line Item

The billing document header and line item analysis item fields can then be populated and included in Accounting transaction lines as dimension fields to enable accurate business analysis. See Adding Analysis from Billing Document Header to Accounting Transaction Line for examples of how to do this.

Note:
