Billing Items

 

Use the Billing Items tab within a Billing Record to define the individual charges that comprise the billing itemization based on item code, rate type, warehouse, and billing attribute such as setting the item to be a one-time charge or recurring, etc.  Items such as warehouse handling, utilities, and access charges can be included in the total charge amount.
