How do I create an invoice?
To create an invoice in NextPay:
- Go to Invoices and click New Invoice.
- Select a client from your directory or enter their details manually.
- Add line items with descriptions, quantities, and unit prices.
- Set the tax rate if applicable (VAT at 12% is the default for Philippine businesses).
- Choose payment terms (e.g., due on receipt, net 15, net 30).
- Optionally add notes or terms and conditions.
- Click Save as Draft to save for later, or Send to email it to the client immediately.
When you send the invoice, the client receives an email with a summary and a link to view the full invoice and pay online. You can track whether the client has viewed the invoice from the Invoices list.
Each invoice is assigned a sequential number automatically. You can customize the prefix (e.g., "INV-", "NP-") from Settings > Invoicing.
