You may associate a debtor number with a client.  This is useful when uploading information about client invoices to another party for factoring.  The debtor number is often useful in these scenarios because the invoice factoring company may have a different reference than you for the client.  The references on the client would be set as follows:

• The reference for this client would be the unique identifier for this client.  This would be the same reference you use for this client in your front-office system
• The accounts reference would be the identifier for the client in your accounts system
• The debtor number would be the reference for this client used by the factoring company

The debtor number will be included when you download a list of client invoices or client credit notes as a CSV file.
