Invoicing and tax

Invoices that survive an audit

An invoice is a legal document, not a receipt email. Numbered without gaps, itemised with the billing period, exportable as a PDF, and corrected through credit notes rather than by editing history.

Invoice list filtered by status, showing client, issue and due dates, amount, amount paid and payment status for each invoice

Line items that explain themselves

Each line carries the period it covers and any addons folded into it, so nobody opens a ticket asking what they paid for.

Partial payments, credit and refunds

Take part of an invoice now and the rest later, hold credit that applies itself on the next renewal, and refund to the original rail.

Split and merge

Split one invoice in two, or merge several open invoices into a single payable. Both are available to staff and to clients.

Tax rules that follow the client

Configure rules per client and per product, inclusive or exclusive, with a tax report that reconciles against what you actually collected.

Reminders that stop when they should

Overdue reminders cancel themselves when the invoice is paid, the service is cancelled, or the renewal is no longer owed.

Questions

Invoicing and tax, in detail

Can I change the invoice numbering format?

Yes. The prefix and sequence are configurable, and imported invoices keep their original numbers so your history stays continuous.

Are invoices available as PDFs?

Yes. Every invoice renders to a PDF for download and for email, using your logo and business details.

Does it handle VAT, GST and sales tax?

Tax is configured as rules applied per client and per product, which covers VAT, GST and sales tax. Country-specific e-invoicing clearance is not shipped.
