Accounting: Creating New Invoices
Once the job is complete, the invoice is what turns your work into revenue. It shows the customer exactly what was done, what it costs, and what they owe—clearly and professionally.
What Is an Invoice?
An invoice is a detailed request for payment that includes:
-
Services performed
-
Parts and materials used
-
Labor costs
-
Taxes and totals
It’s typically created after a job is completed or ready for billing.
