The catalog item's Income account can prefill the accounting choice for a sales line. Select the appropriate company account with the current permission and save the item. This mapping helps preparation but does not replace the document's issuance review.
Check the item's name, type, description and normal use before choosing an account. A generic item reused for different business activities may need careful review each time. Avoid using a convenient account solely because it appears first in the picker.
New manual invoice lines can use saved document defaults, while catalog items keep their own accounts. If a draft line has an unexpected mapping, inspect whether it came from the catalog or a manual default before changing global settings.
Invoice issuance separately checks the final accounts and tax treatment. Saving a catalog mapping does not post revenue or correct previously issued documents. Review a draft's copied lines and current source revision, then use the appropriate document correction workflow if an already issued invoice has the wrong accounting treatment.
