	<GeneralSection><Paragraph>The composing criteria define whether invoice lines can be grouped on an invoice. For example, invoice lines with different invoice-to addresses or different invoice currencies cannot be grouped on one invoice. In addition, to support dimension accounting, invoice lines that must be posted to different dimensions cannot be grouped on one invoice.</Paragraph>
		<List><ListIntro>Two types of composing criteria exist:</ListIntro>
			<ListItemHead>Fixed general criteria</ListItemHead>
			<ListItem>Predefined general composing criteria that always apply to all types of invoices.</ListItem>
			<ListItemHead>Specific criteria</ListItemHead>
			<ListItem>Specific criteria that apply to specific types of invoicing data. For example, a composing criterion for project invoices can be the project, and for service invoices, the service contract. You can define the composing criteria for various types of invoices in the <Link href="/baanerp/tp/glossary/glossary#000315" role="glossary">invoicing method</Link> that you define in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tc/mcs/tcmcs0155s000" role="session">Invoicing Methods (tcmcs0155s000)</GUIRef> session.</ListItem>
