Let us understand briefly about work areas-
Billing Work Area
Billing work area helps to perform tasks related to customer billing activities. Monitor and review incomplete transactions, and approve and research pending adjustments. Use AutoInvoice to import transactions from other systems and generate invoices and credit memos automatically according to your requirements. You can easily review and correct AutoInvoice import errors and resubmit AutoInvoice. Create new invoices, debit memos, credit memos, and on-account credit memos. Perform related activities to manage your transactions: update, duplicate, credit, adjust, dispute, and preview a transaction. You can also create a new customer record and manage existing customers from the Billing work area.
Receivables Balances Work Area
Use the Receivables Balances work area to perform tasks related to customer payment activities and the management of accounts receivable balances. Review actionable items, including open receipts and receipt batches, unapplied and on-account receipts and credit memos, receipt remittance batches, and funds transfer errors. Create receipts manually, import receipts via lockbox or spreadsheet, or create automatic receipts. Perform related activities to manage your receipts: apply, unapply, reverse, delete; create invoice adjustments or chargebacks during receipt application; and remit, clear, or risk eliminate factored receipts. You can manage receipt remittances: create, modify, and approve receipt remittance batches. You can also perform tasks related to managing accounts receivables balances, including reconciling receivables and managing receivables accounting period statuses.
Revenue Management Work Area
Use the Revenue Management work area to perform tasks related to revenue recognition and revenue adjustments. Run the Recognize Revenue program to generate revenue distribution records for invoices and credit memos that use invoicing and revenue scheduling rules. Perform revenue adjustments on one or more transactions, including scheduling and unscheduling revenue; reviewing, adding, and expiring revenue contingencies; and transferring sales credits. You can also manage revenue policies, revenue contingencies, and rules that assign revenue contingencies to transactions automatically.
Customer Information
From either the Billing or Receivables Balances work area, you have access to manage both customer information and customer account activities, in summary and in detail. You can review customer account information by a single business unit, bill-to site, or across all business units and bill-to sites. For each customer account, you can review transactions and receipts, dispute and adjust transactions, and drill down to current or historical customer account activity.
