The Documents and Accounting Window is used to do all of the accounting and document printing functions in Design Manager. With it you can create Proposals, Purchase and Work Orders and Client Invoices, enter Client Deposits, Retainers, Payments, Vendor Invoices, General Ledger Journal Entries, Miscellaneous Cash Receipts and more. Please note that some functionality will not be available unless you have purchased the optional Accounting module.
All of this information is displayed on the three tabs of the Documents and Accounting Window: Projects, Vendors, and Journal Entries and Miscellaneous Receipts (Journal Entries and Misc.).
The buttons on the tool bar at the top of the window allow you to perform all accounting and document printing functions within Design Manager. When a function is not available, the corresponding button will appear disabled. Only a portion of the tool bar buttons will be available if you have not purchased the Accounting module.
Tabs: The Documents and Accounting Window has three different tabs for viewing information: 
Project, Vendor, and Journal Entries and Miscellaneous Cash Receipts. Just click on the tab heading to switch between different tabs. Each tab has several folders for organizing your data.
Project: The Project tab has folders for Proposals, Purchase and Work Orders, and Client Invoices. In addition, any Retainers for the Project will be displayed. Projects are listed alphabetically by Code. All information for a Project can be viewed by clicking on the plus (+) sign to the left of the Project. You can then click the + sign in front of the Proposal, Invoice, or Purchase and Work Orders folders. Each of these folders will have sub-folders to contain older or completed documents and accounting transactions. Current or active documents and accounting entries may be present beneath the main folders. If a folder does not have a + sign, there are no entries recorded within the folder.
Vendor: The Vendor tab lists all Vendors and Employees alphabetically by Code. To view information for a Vendor, click on the + sign to the left of the Vendor. Vendor information is divided into two folders: Purchase and Work Orders and Operating Expenses and Miscellaneous Bills (Operating Expenses and Misc. Bills). Operating Expenses and Miscellaneous Bills are further subdivided by date. Employee information is also divided into two folders: Purchase and Work Orders and Expenses and Payroll Entries. Again, these sub-folders will further be divided by date. The first folder is always the current year plus any future months. Inside the current year folder, the first folder holds the current month plus any future entries. As accounting entries are created, they will appear under the appropriate date folder.
Journal Entries and Miscellaneous Cash Receipts (Journal Entries and Misc.): This tab shows Company accounting information which is divided into General Ledger Journal Entries and Miscellaneous Cash Receipts. Both sections are subdivided by date. The first folder is always the current year plus any future months. Inside the current year folder, the first folder holds the current month plus any future entries. As accounting entries are created, they will appear under the appropriate date folder.
