6.5.1.4 Collection Rules
Collection Accounting Rules operate to collect the cost/revenue for the Invoice Items to which they apply to the relevant cost centres.
One campaign item record will be reflected in one accounting record including all its information on debtor and payment terms, etc.
For accounting records type 'revenue' amount equals N2, whereas accounting records type 'cost' uses TpcAmount.
There are two different types of Collection Rules
Collection - Cost - this is used to define the rules for cost collection
Collection - Revenue - this is used to define the rules for revenue collection
