Creating Info Records for Chargeable Components 

Use

When a billing clerk invoices a subcontractor for chargeable components, the system reads the price from an info record. For this reason, you must create an info record that specifies how much you want to charge the subcontractor.

The system also reads the component’s price from the info record when an accounts clerk enters a deductible account payable. In addition, the system also needs to calculate input tax, and for this purpose you have to enter a tax code in the info record.

For generic information about info records, see Purchasing Info Records (MM-PUR-VM).
