Billing Account Codes Explained

Topic

This article explains how to use NinjaOne Billing to define your account codes and map them to your products and the corresponding codes in your accounting tool. 

If you need to enable the NinjaOne Billing tool, refer to NinjaOne Billing: Getting Started with Professional Services Automation (PSA).

Environment

NinjaOne Billing

Description

Account codes in NinjaOne Billing allows you to configure the account to which each product should be mapped. To support this, we have created default accounts for each of the existing product types in NinjaOne and will maintain their mapping to accounts in your accounting tool.

This functionality changes the way you interact with product types in NinjaOne. We removed the dependency requiring a product type to determine the quantity calculation. Instead of using the product type, you will use a quantity source to specify what type of lookup you want to use for each product.

Use Account Codes With Products

You can select an account code when working with products in NinjaOne and set the quantity source to customize your billing process. 

Billing agreements will use the quantity type to determine which products can be added to specific billing automations or orders.
