Line Items |
The Line Items tab for vendor invoices enables you to display, define, and post charges for vendor invoice line items to work orders inserted on the Data -> Call Center -> Call Center screen.
Tip: If there is a check in the Extracted for payment field on the Basic Info tab, you cannot update information on this screen. To update information, enter a new invoice for the work order.
Tip: To limit the display of information in the grid and maximize performance, use the filter. You can sort on vendor ID, invoice number, work order location ID/year/number, and vendor contract ID, among other values.
