Bill Delivered (BD)

This posting type is used to raise a bill for a client. The invoice could be made up of one or more elements such as profit costs (a charge based upon how much time has been spent working on a file), unbilled disbursements (outstanding ODDBs and/or ODDCs), not yet paid disbursements (ODDBs and/or ODDCs recorded as MDs but not physically paid out) and recoverable expenses (bank charges, travel expenses etc).

Using the posting

When using a BD, you must specify the amounts of VATable/Non-VATable disbursements, VATable/Non-VATable NYPs, charges and time to be billed, together with a profit split. For a full list of posting slip fields, refer to the Posting Slip dialog box.

When posted, entries appear on the Disbursements tab of the Accounts Ledger with a date in the Billed column, the bill is recorded on the Bill tab of the Accounts Ledger, and entries appear on the Time Ledger with a date in the Billed column. A debit also appears on the office side shown on the Client Overview tab.
