Hi Jennifer, Can you check the depth of the CREATE_BILL permission? If that permission depth is set for system, that could be what's filtering out the billing types owned by the other org units.
I haven't verified any of this, but when a set of permissions exists like: VIEW_BILLING_TYPE CREATE_BILLING_TYPE UPDATE_BILLING_TYPE DELETE_BILLING_TYPE it suggests to me that those are the permissions that control who can manage the list of billing types, not what appears when you're actually applying a bill. I would check that CREATE_BILL permission depth and see if changing it makes a difference. Hope this helps, Michele -- Michele M.
