A clear, accurate sales invoice will encourage buyers to pay in full and on time so you can maintain a healthy cash flow for your business.
Ensure recipients can easily process your invoice and pay you on time by including these components:
- Contact information (for both parties)
- Date of issue. This helps the customer budget and prepare for payment.
- Invoice number. For individual sales use INV001, INV002. For recurrent clients use ORG001, 0RG002.
- A list of products or services provided. Provide a brief description of each item, unit prices, as well as quantity.
- The total amount due. Include applicable sales tax rates and any discounts you’ve agreed to so the recipient fully understands what they owe.
- Payment terms and details. Set expectations for how and when the customer should pay.
Streamlining your issuing process provides a positive customer experience, encouraging repeat business and brand loyalty.
