Creditor Inquiry is an accounting inquiry screen. It shows details of amounts,
invoices, payments, credits, etc., on transactions and summaries of open balances
by accounting periods (ie. 30 days, 60 days, etc). There is also a separate
view and search facility for Payments; and invoices currently in the process
of Invoice Approval.

details such as addresses, phones,
contacts, and even
notes. These can be added to the Creditor Inquiry Book providing
a detailed history of events or communications with the Creditor. This is a
great way to manage the entire Creditor record from the one location.
These details can also be updated and maintained in the Creditor
Book.
