How can you create an invoice?
Thereâs a few ways you can create invoices in Current RMS:
For a single opportunity â just hit Invoice Opportunity under Actions
For multiple opportunities using project invoicing
Manually by creating manual invoices
When invoicing from an opportunity or project, you can choose how detailed youâd like your invoice to be: get a full itemized breakdown or a clean one-line invoice.Â
Where can you create a credit?
Need to provide a refund? You can:
Create manual credits
Credit any invoice to create a credit note from it
Thereâs also an option to void invoices if you prefer.
Part invoice
Sometimes you might need to raise an invoice for a particular percentage or straight dollar figure of an opportunity or project. Current makes part invoicing easy, simply choose the âpart invoiceâ option when creating an invoice.
When the job is all done, raise a final invoice by choosing âfinal invoiceâ and Current will generate an invoice for the balance.
Invoices and credits are separate records
When you invoice from an opportunity or project, a separate record is created in Current RMS for the invoice. Itâs a snapshot of the opportunity or project at the time that you created it.
This is great for events where numbers and products change a lot; if you raise a 50% part invoice now and prices on the opportunity change, the amount youâve taken wonât be 50% any more but youâll be able to raise a final invoice less the amount youâve taken.
It also means that you can create multiple invoices and credits against an opportunity. They show up under the Invoices heading on the right-hand side of an opportunity.
Record payments and refunds
Quickly record payments & refunds received against an invoice and display this to your customer using the âtake paymentâ functionality in Current RMS. Your invoice layout shows the balance to pay to your customer.
Post to Xero or QuickBooks Online
Current lets you create invoices and credits and log payments against them, which might be enough for your needs.
If youâre looking for advanced functionality such as bank reconciliation, customer account statements, expense tracking, or payroll, then you should consider an accounts package like Xero.
Once integrated, a new Post Invoice option appears so you can send invoices and credits straight to your chosen linked accounts solution.Â
