Statements are the most commonly used collection tool in the entrée system. Statements are typically printed periodically and then mailed directly to the customer. Statements may be printed on pre printed forms or on plain paper depending on which document type is specified in system preferences. This section will explain in detail how to generate statements from the entrée system.

 

•The Print Statement option, located on the Miscellaneous tab of Customer Maintenance, must be enabled for a statement to be generated for that account.

 

•To cut costs, statements may be printed on plain paper by setting the statement type to P on the Documents tab of System Preferences.

 

•Some distributors prefer to print a type of miniature statement on every invoice for the customer. To do this, enable the Print Open Receivables on Invoices option, also located on the Miscellaneous tab of the Customer Maintenance.
