For each Account you create, enter the Account Names and GL Numbers. The following Account Types are available:
- Receivables: your organization must have at least one Account Receivable (AR). However, you are able to add more than one All Sales and Payment transactions will be logged against the Account Receivables created. All ARs must be set at the Funder level.
- Bank: Edit or create for each bank account against which you’ll be logging payments.
- Expense: This will be used to write off amounts for payments that will never be collected.
- Revenue: Create a revenue account for each Cost Centre. It will be applied to each Bill Code and be logged against for each Visit and/or Credit Note.
- Liability: If your Services are taxable, enter each tax account that will need to be logged for each visit. Each Liability account (e.g. HST) will sum the amount of tax the agency owes.
