Creating an identifier
An identifier is a code that is assigned to an identifier type. There can be multiple identifiers assigned to each identifier type. Each identifier can be associated with a posting account (company, accounting unit account) or an allocation code. An identifier can also be associated with an override category that will be used—instead of the processing rule default category—if the Identifier option is used on the processing rule. An identifier can represent any type of facility that allows cash flow in and out of the company. For example, if you received insurance payments from multiple insurances across multiple health facilities, you could have an identifier type for each insurance, and within that identifier type, you could have an identifier for each health facility that sends claims and receives payments from that insurance.
