Adding and Viewing Account Memos
Account Memos are account-associated messages that can be viewed, edited and retrieved from the Bill Entry window as well as the Account Properties window in EnergyCAP.
Since Account Memos are associated with the ACCOUNT rather than the bill, and because the messages are not associated with a particular timeframe, Account Memos are useful for adding 'informal' account-related information that can and should be seen and edited by both bill entry and supervisory personnel.
When a new Memo is created, a timestamp is automatically added, but it can be edited/deleted along with any other data. Account Memos are accessible and editable from any Bill Entry window that is associated with the account, regardless of bill date.Adding an Account Memo from the Bill Entry window
