[InvoiceCredit]

This topic describes how specification of the InvoiceCredit field type differs from specification of other field types in Eiglobalextra.ini.

With the exception of the points below, specify InvoiceCredit using the same settings as other predefined field types.

Extra settings

These extra settings are available for InvoiceCredit:

Setting Description
CreditValues Values that trigger classifying an invoice as a credit note. A comma-separated list.
Important These must be added manually if you learn the Debit/Credit field in Optimize. See "Learn the Debit/Credit field in Optimize" topic in Invoices help for more information.
CreditOutputValue Output value if any of the CreditValues are found.
InvoiceOutputValue Output value if none of the CreditValues are found.

Example:

[InvoiceCredit]

CreditValues=creditnote,credit

CreditOutputValue=credit note

InvoiceOutputValue=invoice

InvoiceCredit is not the same as the #Credit system variable. The only possible values for #Credit are 0 and 1, while InvoiceCredit allows you to specify any value.

Do not use these settings

Do not use these settings when defining the InvoiceCredit field type:

This field profile is added to invoice profiles automatically, even if:

  • You have an existing invoice profile that does not have this field profile.
  • You created a new invoice profile without this field profile.

When the this field profile is added automatically this way, it does not appear in the invoice profile in Manager.

If you do not want to use this field profile, you must create a field profile with this field type (if you cannot see the field profile in Manager) and set the Activation settings to Inactive.
