  • If this option is selected in Configuration, this field displays the three-character currency code for the project's billing currency.
  • If this option is cleared in Configuration, this field displays the three-character currency code for the project's project currency.

JTD Spent This field shows the actual billing amount spent, job-to-date, for this account, as calculated at the most recent posting. Vision calculates billing amounts based on the billing terms in effect at the time of the posting.

When you post a transaction, Vision looks at the applicable billing terms to determine billing rates for project reporting purposes. If you later update the billing terms, your updates are not reflected on the project reports unless you refresh billing extensions. You should refresh billing extensions when you create or change the billing terms for any project, or after posting transactions for that project during the current period

If you are using the Multicurrency feature, the currency for this amount is based on the setting for the Use billing currency not Project currency option on the Reporting tab of Accounting System Settings:

  • If this option is selected in Configuration, the amount in this field is based on the project's billing currency.
  • If this option is cleared in Configuration, the amount in this field is based on the project currency.
