Create an Invoice
Note: You need to have created and approved a quote for your job before you're able to create an invoice
Once you have created a quote for a job on Trade Trak, invoicing is a simple and hassle-free process.
To begin, from the dashboard click on the 'Finance' menu at the top of the menu, then click on the 'Invoices’ module.
Once in the ‘Invoices’ module, you are able to view previously created invoices, view their general descriptions, types, amounts and balances. If you have many invoices, you are able to refine your results by searching for keywords or filtering by the quote used, the invoice type, or status.
To build a new invoice, click ‘Create invoice’ in the top right corner.
The 'Create an Invoice' pop up is divided into three sections. There are a number of quote details including client, job, quote amount, amount previously invoiced and remaining total that will prefill for your convenience once a quote is selected. Any fields that are mandatory in order to build an invoice are marked with an asterisk.
