Important Considerations

  • When a Bill is created, its status is 'created', and associated Journal Entries are created in 'draft' status.

  • A Bill's Journal Entries cannot be modified, you must edit the Bill itself and the associated Journals will be updated.

  • Once a Bill is approved, the Journal Entries will be posted.
