Invoicing

With the invoicing function of Banana Accounting, you will be able to create and print out your invoices very easily, thanks to a series of predefines Invoice styles that can be customized for each country.

In order to set up your invoices, you must create an accounting file. If an account file already exists, you may choose to generate your invoices within it, or you may want to create a new file dedicated entirely to invoice management. 

In order to generate your invoices, specific file setups must be present in the accounting file:

				Logo It is possible to insert a personalized logo. Menu file → Set up a logo
				Heading The heading of the invoice will be identical to the one entered  Menu File → File and accounting properties → Address tab
				Client Address The client's address will be identical to the one figuring in the Accounts table, where you will have set up the customer accounts with their addresses, learn more on setting up client accounts.
				Invoice data The contents of the invoice must be entered in the Transactions table, learn how to enter invoices.
				Custom text at end There is blank space available for you to insert your own comments at the end of your invoice. Use Menu Account2 → Clients → Print Invoices → section Option layout.
				ISR (Switzerland) Settings to create your ISR policy automatically can only be defined for Switzerland and for layouts that start with CH, please check: Menu Account2→ Clients → Print invoices → Settings.
