Make any adjustments to the fields under these tabs:

-
After you have entered your lease values, select Process.
The fields on the lease details form are then updated with the values you entered.
-
Once you have finished your adjustments, select Create initial journal.
It is necessary for all finance leases to create a journal entry so that any generated invoices display the updated lease details. For operating leases, if there is no direct cost then you do not need an initial journal entry to generate invoices.

Select the Initial journal date and then select OK.
After you have created the initial journal entry for your lease you can then generate an invoice. Lease lines only appear as an option to invoice after the initial journal entry is created.
