Send Customer Invoices

They’re detailed, crucial business records. But managing them doesn’t have to be complicated.

Invoices are payment requests businesses send electronically, in the mail or in person after they deliver products or services to customers. As a payment reminder and financial record for the customer, an invoice traditionally includes a unique number so that it can be easily stored and accessed in a system, details of the product or service provided, an itemized list describing costs and taxes, the date the invoice was sent, the date the product or service was delivered, contact information for the buyer and seller, the total amount due, payment terms and options, and a payment due date. Putting together an invoice manually can be a lengthy, detailed process, and it’s becoming obsolete.
