Clients are global records, meaning that an individual client could potentially be used by anyone in your WorkBook database. Debtors are billing entities and are unique records within a WorkBook company; they cannot be shared across companies.

Clients are created in the resource module and are usually controlled by a system administrator or specific user role.

Create Debtor in
