The invoices

A gapless sequence, checked every time you open it.
A gapless sequence, checked every time you open it.

Your invoices are numbered in sequence, with no gap and no duplicate, and the banner checks this every time the screen opens. A gap in the series is the first thing an audit looks for.

  • Find a document by number, by client, or over a period.
  • A credit note never replaces the invoice it corrects: it references it, and both stay in the ledger.
  • The invoice displays exactly as it will print, with the required legal notices and the buyer's identity. Once issued, it can no longer be changed: it gets printed, it gets sent.
  • The second view follows the money rather than the numbering: what's been taken, what's waiting, what's been refunded, and what's still due at pickup.

The reports

The reports: cash taken, cost, margin — or VAT due, rate by rate.
The reports: cash taken, cost, margin — or VAT due, rate by rate.

Six tables that read the same period: the summary, the breakdown by product, by category, by brand, the VAT due and order tracking. Four shortcuts for shop owners, or two dates of your own.

The figures to remember: what you've taken, what the merchandise cost you, and the margin left over. The VAT report, meanwhile, replaces them with tax due, rate by rate. The export matches exactly the report shown and its period, in a file your accountant opens without installing anything.

Frequently asked questions

Does a credit note replace the invoice it corrects?

No, it never replaces it: it references it, and both documents stay in the ledger, each one available to view.

Can I edit an invoice that's already been issued?

No, once issued it can no longer be changed: it gets printed, it gets sent. A mistake is corrected with a credit note.

How do I know what's still due on my orders?

Open the second view of the invoices screen: it follows the money rather than the numbering, with what's been taken, what's waiting and what's still due at pickup.

Does the VAT report replace the other reports?

No, it's one of the six reports that read the same period: instead of the cash taken and the margin, it shows the tax due, rate by rate.
