What an invoice usually includes

An invoice is a request for payment. Most include who is billing, who is being billed, a unique invoice number, the issue and due dates, a list of what was sold with quantities and prices, any tax or discount, and the total to pay.

Add payment details and terms in the notes so your client knows how and when to pay.

Tips for clear invoices

• Give every invoice a unique number and keep them in order.
• Describe each item clearly so the client knows what they are paying for.
• State the due date and any late payment terms in the payment terms box.
• Put your bank or payment instructions in the notes.
• Save a copy of the PDF and the .json file for your records.

How the totals are worked out

Each line amount is quantity times unit price. The subtotal is the sum of the lines. A discount is taken off the subtotal, either as a percent or a fixed amount that cannot exceed the subtotal. Tax is then added on the discounted amount, followed by shipping or other charges. If you enter an amount already paid, it is subtracted to give the amount due.

Limits

This is a simple invoice maker, not accounting software, and it does not give legal or tax advice. Check local invoice and tax rules. Everything is created in your browser and nothing is uploaded. The PDF uses standard fonts, so characters outside the Western European set show as question marks. It supports one tax rate per invoice, and your logo is resized to a small image.
