Distributing Transaction Lines in Invoices

When distributing transaction lines in an invoice, you have the option to use a distribution template for easier distribution calculation.

Only users assigned with Custom CFO and Custom A/R Clerk roles can distribute lines and apply distribution templates to invoices.

Important:

You must first ensure that Invoice is enabled in the transaction distribution preferences. For more information, see Setting Up Transaction Distribution Preferences.
