Issue Invoice

 

An invoice, bill or tab is a commercial document issued by a seller to a buyer, which relates to a sale transaction. The invoice indicates the products, quantities, and agreed prices or services the seller had provided the buyer. The term invoice indicates that money is owed or owing.

The payment terms are also stated on the invoice, which specifies the maximum number of days to settle the invoice, and a ‘settlement discount’ is sometimes offered if payment is made before the due date. In some cases, the buyer has already paid for the products or services listed on the invoice.

The invoice in this screen refers to a sales invoice, whereby we are issuing the invoice from the point of a seller. The invoice is called a purchase invoice if we are receiving the invoice (e.g. from a supplier) from the point of a buyer.

The invoice is the starting point for GL double entry postings for sales transactions. The accounting double entries are automatically posted to the trade debtor control account and the selected GL code in the invoice transaction screen.
