An AR invoice object represents an invoice sent to a customer for goods or services provided.

About invoice record numbers

Certain types of transaction definitions in Order Entry (e.g. Sales Invoice, Contract Invoice, Sales Credit Memo) are configured to create corresponding invoices in the Accounts Receivable module. When a transaction is updated in Order Entry, the related AR transaction is deleted and recreated. As a result, the AR transaction will have a new RECORDNO. Integrations relying on these records should consider using a MODULEKEY filter outlined below.
