Fire Prevention - Invoices - Mass Creating

This guide is for SDL Desktop users in Fire Prevention who need to bill multiple units at once. Follow these steps when you want to filter the Active Units grid to your target set, select and edit those records in bulk, and mass-create invoices with a set invoice/due date.

 

  1. This guide will demonstrate how to create invoices from the Fire Prevention Active Units data grid. First, click on the Active Units data grid under the Fire Prevention category.
