Billing Labs
Overview
A billing lab is en entity that has financial activity - sends out invoices, accepts payments, and issues credits. For majority of labs, there's only one entity – the lab itself. Sometimes, however, you may have multiple distinct client bases that warrant a different billing entity.
Common situations where this is true:
- You are a milling center for other labs but also have clients that are doctors. Here, you have 2 distinct client bases: labs and doctors.
- You have two or more distinct client bases that warrant different accounting systems.
How Pilot Handles This
- In Pilot, you can create multiple billing labs by navigating to Admin -> Billing Labs. There's always one default billing lab.
- During billing account creation, you can specify which billing lab that account will belong to. All activity for that account will belong to the billing lab.
- Access our reporting suite to get information about the financial activity per your billing lab.
