eCounsel

 

Issue: We solved the following issues with tax fields:

  • We created audit rules to validate Tax type, Task, Activity, and Expense Codes.

  • We created a rule that validates tax types that a firm imports to eCounsel. Before, for invoices LEDES98bi, the value entered in LINE_ITEM_TAX_TYPE was not validated and sometimes LINE_ITEM_TAX_TYPE was not valid for eCounsel, which created errors.
