Setting Up Automatic Accruals tied to Sales Invoices
Hi (my first question/post!) - I am a new NS user at a CPG company and I'm trying to understand if its possible to set up NS accruals tied to each issued invoice.
In other words, I want NS to automatically accrue certain expense items such as trade, broker commissions, etc that we can true up on a quarterly basis as opposed to having to manage via month end journal entries.
For example: Issue an invoice for $100,000 but I want to accrue 10% contra revenue to account for trade spend ($10,000) and 2% for commissions ($2,000). Right now we have to manually JE the expenses against proper P&L and BS accounts but I am hopeful that NS should be able to do this automatically. Terms will differ by customer so i would like to set up standard information by each customer.
