This machine bills the client a service component, and a finance component. Internally, you want to keep track of the income split, but you want to bill the client a single combined amount. This assumes you have Kitting enabled (Tools > Options > Project > Machines > Linked Meter Kit Stockcode).

Under/Over Meters

 

Both meters have independent opening balances. In this case, you need to ensure they are the same. Jim2 will give you a chance to enter in the primary black meter, then automatically populate the value of the finance meter to be the same as the current meter count of the black meter.

Also note that the minimum volume is specified for each meter. Jim2 allows these to operate independently if required. If we receive a meter read of 53,500 for black, the following job is produced:

 

split bill job

 

Here, the client sees that it has been billed the minimum of 5,000 pages at $0.01 per page. Internally, for accounting purposes we have a split between standard billing and unders, as well as a split between service and finance charges.

 

If the following month we receive a read of 61,000, this job is produced:

 

split bill job1

 

This overs job again contains the split between service and finance, as well as standard and overs billing. The client, again, is presented with an invoice that contains the total number of pages, and the combined rate.
