You must select debit and credit accounts to track sales and cost transactions made in the Service Invoicing module due to the integration with Microsoft Dynamics GP. You can review any invoice transaction made in Service Management through Microsoft Dynamics GP. For example, in the Receivables Transaction Entry window, you can easily identify Service Management transactions by the SRVCE prefix in the Document Number field of the Receivables Transaction Entry window. Sales and costs transactions made in Service Management flow to the General Ledger chart of accounts selected during Microsoft Dynamics GP setup.
