Batch Screen

A type of tab or section in a tab of a record screen where certain multiple data items of the Record can be entered and viewed as a single list, all in one screen. In the object model, items added to a record with batch screens are considered Sub-objects, and are usually represented by J-tables.

An example of a batch screen in the administrative user interface can be the Custom Fields tab in object definitions.

Billable Tasks

Tasks that have a financial cost and therefore can be posted against (debited from) accounts, for example, buying a new computer is a task that has a specified cost and needs to be posted against an account. Alternatively, a task such as calling a meeting has no cost and is considered non-billable.

Billable tasks can be tracked by their rates on an hourly basis. All billable tasks can be posted against certain accounts according to the posting criteria you set for each individual account.

Block
