Create entries for: Record WO date for invoice date

Checked - when creating G/L entries to record the A/R, instead of putting the invoice date in the G/L Invoice Date field, it will put the WO Date in the G/L Invoice Date field.  (Note: The Effective Date of the G/L entries are still the date of the invoice) The G/L Invoice Date is usually associated with A/P and not with Invoicing. All A/R aging functions are all based on the entry’s effective date.

Unchecked – the Invoice date on the A/R entry is the same as the Invoice’s Invoice Date

Deferred Income Account

Filling in a deferred income account (normally a liability account type in the chart of accounts), allows you to have the ability to override the GL Effective date for each detail line item on an invoice by double-clicking on the part and entering a date range in the from/thru fields. This will cause the entries to flow through the deferred income account.
