Invoice Distribution

Service charges can be distributed to tenants on a specified basis and included as an additional line item on an invoice. This article explains how to create a Sales Invoice when a service charge was under-estimated or an Invoice Credit Note when a service charge was over-estimated.

Additionally, a purchase invoice can be distributed to the relevant tenants.
