Prior Columns

If an item on the Billing Selection window has previously been billed and the billing formula has changed, you may choose to use the prior formula in billing the activity. If an item has not, then the Prior Formula field is grayed out to prevent data entry.  If you use the Prior Formula you may also specify the columns to print on the bills and the order in which they print. This allows you to print the columns the same way as before if the "Columns to Print" setting has changed in the client profile since the previous billing. See Use Current Formula in Billing Selection Fields for more information on using the prior formula.

To specify the columns to print on the bill:

Key up to three column codes in the Prior Columns field in the order you want them to print. If you select fewer than three columns, they are right-justified on the bill.
