Accounting Settings

Configure cost recovery and accounting behavior from Settings → Accounting in the PriApps Admin UI. The Accounting tab displays configurable settings for Cost Recovery and Accounting features.

Setting	Description
Cost Recovery?	Check to activate Cost Recovery features on the Managed Printer / MFP UI.
Account search?	If checked, a search facility is provided on the Cost Recovery screen where the user enters the Cost Account to be charged for a job. This applies to Workstation Agents and MFP displays. Partial account names or codes can be entered, and a list of matching accounts is displayed from which the required Cost Account can be selected.
Client/Matter accounting?	If checked, a two-stage account search and selection process is enabled. The user first searches for the Client to which the job is to be charged. A list of Cost Accounts or Matters belonging to that Client is then displayed from which the required Matter can be selected.
Accounts are mandatory?	If checked, the user is forced to select a Cost Account for each print job or MFP login session. If a Cost Account is not provided, an error message will be displayed and the print or login will be halted.
Auto-Create Accounts?	Cost Account codes entered will be automatically created if they do not already exist in the PriApps system.
Major currency unit only?	If selected, all reports and other places where currency values are displayed will be formatted in terms of the principal currency unit only.
Hide user information?	If checked, user and job names will not be displayed on reports or any screens that display print usage. Use this setting in jurisdictions that do not permit individual-level behavior tracking.
