Invoice for Jobs
Entries that you make on either the Sales/Invoicing window or the Receive Money window can be automatically applied to Jobs. When you invoice a customer for a job or part of a job, you can apply each line item on the transaction to the specific job. If you only enter a receipt for a job and do not enter an invoice, you should specify a job and applicable phase or cost code (Sage 50 Premium Accounting and higher) for the receipt.
To invoice for a job, you need to:
- From the Tasks menu, select Sales/Invoicing.
- Enter or select the customer ID of the customer whom you want to invoice.
- If you plan to print this invoice, skip the Invoice # field, and do not enter an invoice number.
-
In the Quantity field, enter the number of units for which you want to be paid, or use this field to enter the number of man-hours you want to record as billable.
Note: You can select an inventory item or just enter a description. You should use the Item and/or Description fields for specifying the job details. You can also use the Quantity field for recording number of items or hours.
- Enter or select the job ID, if applicable, for each line item on the invoice. To display a list of existing jobs, type ? in this field, or select the Lookup button.
- If this customer is associated with a job and you have entered related job expense transactions, you can apply reimbursable expenses to the invoices. Tell me more about applying reimbursable expenses.
- When the invoice is complete, select Print or Save.
