Billing - Running Proforma Billings
Running Proforma Billing
Note:
A couple of days prior to running all billings, you should run the Pro-forma Billings as a way to check/preview your results.
Once you check your Proforma report, email it to your Financial Manager for approval before running the actual billings.
Pro-forma Billings will generate a Pro-forma invoice in case you would like to send it to the project for approval. There are two types of Pro-forma Billings that you should run, Pro-forma Continuation Billing and Pro-forma Return Billing. In the RentalResult core system, each has their own separate screen that you will have to run.
