Specifies if the journal line will be applied to an already-posted document. If this is the case, enter the type of the document that will be applied to.

The field is used only if the account type is a customer or vendor account.

Important
If the journal line will be applied to more than one entry at the same time, you must use the Set Applies-to ID function instead of this field. This function does not use the Applies-to Doc. Type field or the Applies-to Doc. No. field, but uses the Applies-to ID field instead.

You apply a journal line, for example, if a credit memo must be applied to a posted invoice, or an invoice must be applied to an installment payment.

To see the types of documents that can be applied to, choose the field. You can choose among:

If a credit memo will be applied to an invoice, you must choose Invoice and enter the appropriate invoice number in the Applies-to Doc. No. field.

If an invoice will be applied to an installment payment, you must choose Payment and enter the number on the installment payment in the Applies-to Doc. No. field.

Important
If you select a document number in the Applies-to Doc. No. field, the Applies-to Doc. Type field will be filled in automatically.
