| In this field, you can enter text on the invoice selection line. You can create invoice lines with or without amounts. If the invoice selection is created with the action “Approve Invoice Selection” in the window Invoice Selection, Maconomy suggests a text based on the set-up of the Invoice Island in the window Invoice Layout Rules. If it is created with the action “Approve for Invoicing On Account,” Maconomy does not suggest any invoice lines.
When you enter text in this field, Maconomy automatically wraps the text each time you press “Return.” Maconomy wraps the text according to the value of the field “Width %,” moving the text exceeding the specified text width down to the required number of lines. A line with an amount is wrapped and split so that the amount automatically floats to the bottom line of the text.
Text above a line with an amount is wrapped as one text block. However, you can divide the text into sections by inserting a blank line between the respective text sections, so that Maconomy will wrap the sections individually. Note, however, that the text section just above an amount line will be wrapped together with this line. This means that if you delete the line, the text section just above will also be deleted. Note that you cannot use the Return key to create sections, as this key is used for executing new changes in Maconomy.
If you later need to insert new text or change text on an invoice line, Maconomy will rewrap both this line and the rest of the text block to which it belongs and adjust the entire block to the specified line width, but any other text blocks will not be affected. This means that you can have a number of text blocks with different widths. To wrap and adjust all the text of an invoice, select the action “Wrap Lines.”
Note that sum lines are never wrapped. In addition, Maconomy sees text lines above such lines as one text block, ending with the text line immediately above the sum line. This means that if you have entered text lines both above and below a sum line which is deleted, these texts are merged when the text is rewrapped, as there is no longer any sum line defining the end of a text block.
If the invoice layout rule for the current job specifies that printouts are only to show a total, Maconomy does not suggest any lines in this table.
If the invoice layout rule for the current job specifies that printouts are to show totals, and that time and amount activities are to be shown per registration, the entry text will be shown in the table for every entry. If time and amount activities are to be shown by activity or by summary activity, Maconomy suggests the name of the activity.
If the invoice is to be created from the job quote, Maconomy suggests the texts from the quote lines.
If you have specified for a job invoiced by time and material that the invoice layout is to include a period indication, Maconomy automatically inserts a text line as a header in the invoice when such a job is approved for invoicing. You can see and edit the period indication line as a normal text line in this window. In the window Language Texts in the Set-Up module a language-dependent text can be configured to precede the period indication. Please note that you must maintain changes to the invoicing period manually on this line if you use the action “Restore Editing.”
If you are editing a blanket invoice of a main job, and the invoice layout rule of the main job specifies “Main Job Invoicing,” the main job and its associated subjobs are invoiced together. If the field “Combine Invoice Lines” is marked on the invoice layout rule, Maconomy will summarize the entries of all the jobs in the main job/subjob hierarchy according to the invoice layout specification. If the field “Combine Invoice Lines” is not marked, Maconomy will add a section for each subjob on the invoice. For more information, please see the description of the window Invoice Layout Rules.
