Description of Issue

Unable to add a Deferred Revenue account to a Charge Code.
There is no field for a Deferred Revenue account on a Charge Code.

Context

Accounts Receivable
Charge Codes (archgmnt)
AR Codes (arcodemt)
Accounting Method
Deferred Revenue

Cause

The Charge Code is assigned to an AR Code that uses the Accrual Accounting Method.

Resolution

If working with a brand new Charge Code:

Navigate to General or Property Revenues > Accounts Receivable > Setup > Accounts Receivable Charge Codes
Click Search and pull up the relevant Charge Code
Click Update on the toolbar
Change the AR Code to one that uses the Cash Accounting Method
Click Accept to save changes

If the Charge Code has been used to create records:

Navigate to General Revenues > Accounts Receivable > Setup > Accounts Receivable Codes
Click Search and pull up the relevant AR Code
Click Update on the toolbar
Change the Accounting Method to Cash
Click Accept to save changes

If the Charge Code has been used to create records and the AR Code should not be changed, a new Charge Code should be created that is assigned to a Cash Accounting AR Code.

Additional Information

When adding GL Accounts to a Charge Code, the account types that are available are based on the Billing Category and the AR Code's Accounting Method. Deferred Revenue will be an option whenever an AR Code that uses Cash accounting is involved.
If the AR Code on a Charge Code cannot be updated, please see: Cannot update AR Code on Charge Code
