How do I generate an invoice?
Child > Finance > + > Input invoice title > Select invoice month or the invoice period > Calculate.
Top tip: The invoice date & Due date will automatically populate as this is linked to your invoice settings.
Invoice title: This is the name of the invoice. For example: June 2020.
Select Month: This is where you can select the specific invoice month. If you use this option the start and end date will automatically populate.
Start date & end date: This enables you to select a specific date range for your invoice. For example, you would use this option if you do not invoice a month at a time.
Top tip: Please note, for automated ‘average’ fee and funding calculations to calculate correctly, you must select a full month period. This is where you would use the select month option.
Invoice number: This is automatically generated as it is linked to your previously set invoice settings. However, if you wish you are able to manually edit the number.
Invoice date: This defaults to the current date but can be manually changed to past or future dates.
Due date: This is based on your invoice settings previously inputted. For example, if 6 days were inputted the due date will default to 6 days after the invoice date.
Calculate: This button will calculate the invoice. Once clicked, line items for the child will appear below. The line items will take into account all information with a financial value within the child’s profile. For example, the child’s booking pattern, the child’s funding allocation, extra items, discounts & extra sessions.
Top tip: Once calculated, individual line items can be edited or deleted. You are also able to manually add a line item by clicking ‘add line item’.
