Accounting for Bills Receivable

Bills Receivable window doesn’t provide any view accounting menu option under the tools menu. You need to run the report ‘Journal Entries Report’ to check the bills receivable creation accounting entries (BR Dr Rec Cr). If you have created a receipt or an invoice or an adjustment and applied this to the BR then you can use the view accounting option on the receipt form, the adjustment form or the transactions form.
