Transaction Classification Administration
How do I get here? | Setup ► Accounting & Invoicing ► Transaction Classifications |
Purpose | Transaction Classifications are used to map detailed billing items into an accounting system's General Ledger. In most cases, the transaction classifications are defined by the client and map to Accounting General Ledger codes. However, there are special, system defined transaction classifications that perform additional processing when selected. |
Security/Permissions | Access to the Maintenance Module is required |

Transaction Classification Field Definitions:
Field | Definition | Notes |
---|---|---|
Name |
This Required field is the user defined classification name. This value is displayed in:
|
|
Description | This is an internal description for use by the administrator. It is not required and is not displayed elsewhere in TBS. | |
Value | This Required field is the numeric value stored on the Transaction record. Each classification must have a unique value. Typically this maps back to the client’s general ledger | |
List Name |
This Required field controls when the classification will be displayed on the Transaction Posting Page. |
|
Taxable | This checkbox controls if the system will generate taxing records associated with the Adjustment transactions. It is ignored for Payment transactions. | |
Lookup | Used in association with the Categories shown on the bottom of the screen. This is used with processing automated payments (Credit card / ACH payments) to set default classifications on these payment transactions | |
Allow Payments | This checkbox is used to override the system default behavior, which prevents new transactions from being applied to an account if there is a “Pending Transaction”. The default value is “do not allow” a payment when an account has a pending transaction. If checked, payments are allowed on the account when transactions with this Transaction Classification are pending for the account on the Transaction Posting screen | |
Transaction Classification Categories |
This grid show the classification categories associated with the current Transaction Classification. These are used by the system to automatically associated a Transaction Classification when a payment or credit is created by the system (for example, when a Credit Card Payment is processed). See Transaction Classification Categories for additional details. |
