Accounts Receivable Comments Dialog Box

Click Invoice Comments to enter, update, or view the comments that exist for the current project's invoices.

You can open an invoice and enter associated comments in either Vision or Navigator. When you save and refresh the data, the other application will automatically update. Sharing the comments between the two applications ensures that you have all of the information that is related to the invoice in one location.

The ability to enter comments for your invoices is based on your role's access rights that are assigned on the Accounting tab of Vision Role Security:
  • Accounts Receivable Comment Review Access: Full access allows your role to see all comments, By User access allows you to only see your own comments, and None prevents access to comments.
  • Accounts Receivable Comment Update Access: Full access allows your role to add, edit, or delete comments; By User access allows you to add new comments as well as edit or delete comments where you were the last one to update the comment; and None prevents access to comments.

When you open the Accounts Receivable Comments dialog box, it prefills with existing comments for the billing client. Depending on your access rights, you can add new comments or edit or delete existing comments for the client's invoices. Some of the Accounts Receivable Comments fields are display-only, but the project, invoice, and credit memo fields include lookups where you can select information for your comment. You can also use the Comment Entry field to enter the details for your comment.
