Summary billing provides the ability to combine invoices from multiple customers into a single invoice for a separate customer for billing purposes. The customers who take delivery of the product are referred to as summary ship-to customers. The customer who receives the billing information is referred to as the summary bill-to customer. Each customer that participates in summary billing will be configured as a summary ship-to customer or be linked to a summary bill-to customer.
The summary ship-to invoices are used for sales analysis purposes. This allows users to do analysis on a more granular basis with the ability to report sales by customer location, region, state, etc. Summary ship-to invoices are not used for G/L posting or cash applications. The source documents for summary ship-to Invoices are customer orders, debit and credit memos.
The summary bill-to invoice is used for aging, cash application and posting to the General Ledger.

Distinct Price creates a separate invoice item line on the summary bill-to invoice for each distinct item price combination from all the summary ship-to Invoices being summarized.
