Use this program to:

Invoicing for insurance rentals and wholesale vouchers is handled by other programs on the Invoicing Menu. Because of the possibility of edits to the charges, unposted RAs cannot be invoiced. Only posted RAs are processed by this program.

The RA Invoicing program can use the same pre-printed form described in the Insurance Invoicing chapter if you select "continuous feed". If you select "cut sheet", each invoice prints on a separate sheet of paper.

As far as the Terminal Records File is concerned, this program will use your Accounting Forms printer.

Certain Thermeon customers have designed their own format for the invoicing print program. When using the standard invoicing print program, (print program "C") in order to have your company name and address print on the top of the invoices, there must be a "Y" in the "Print Comp. name on Statement" field in the AR Control File (RealWorld A/R).

To access the RA Invoicing program, type RAINV (RET) at any menu "OPTION:" field or the appropriate line number on the Daily menu. The screen will then display.
