Payment types

Payment types are different methods of making payments (usually prepayments) on contracts. For instance, you might have payment types of "Deposit", "Prepayment", and "In Full". The payment type definition requires an invoice type and an ARCode. The invoice type describes how to categorize invoices in Accounts Receivable. The ARCode can be generalized or specific and categorizes invoice detail lines, provides masks for generating GL account codes, and indicates whether a detail line is subject to tax and/or discount.
