"Balanced entry" protection is incorporated into this function to assure the General Ledger will stay in balance. If debits do not equal credits (due to problems such as power failure or data error), the software will provide a special screen message and disallow update until the problem is corrected. Consult the support desk at Viewpoint for instructions if it is necessary to correct an out-of-balance error.

If this is a sub-job billed from a master job, the software will read for job-specific setup rates for the master job, and if none are found use standard settings. If this is a sub-job billed at the sub-job level, the software will read for job-specific setup rates for the sub-job first, and if billing rates are not found then the master job, and if none are found there use standard settings.
