A scenario for the use of a miscellaneous charge with a cost is when a customer needs to have a vehicle towed to your business. You contact a company to tow the vehicle for the client. When the vehicle is delivered, the tow truck driver hands you an invoice for the towing service. The counterman has to include the additional towing service on the customer's order. The counterman is able to enter the MISTOW in Order Entry to charge the expense of the towing service to the client's order.
Here is an example of the MISTOW charge entry in the general ledger.
