Question 1

What is an online invoice generator?

Accepted Answer

An online invoice generator is a web tool that helps you create professional PDF invoices. Instead of creating layouts manually using word processors, you fill out a pre-formatted template with your client details, items, pricing, and business logo, and then export the finalized document as a PDF.

Question 5

What details should be included on a professional invoice?

Accepted Answer

A valid business invoice should generally include: 
1. Your business name, contact info, and logo.
2. The client's full billing name and address.
3. A unique Invoice Number (for tracking).
4. Dates: Date of issue and payment due date.
5. Items: Detailed description of services/products, quantity, unit cost, and line totals.
6. Invoice summary: Subtotal, tax rate, discounts, and total due.
7. Payment terms and bank details.

Question 6

How do I write payment terms on an invoice?

Accepted Answer

Payment terms specify when and how the client should pay you. Common terms include 'Due Upon Receipt', 'Net 30' (payment due within 30 days of the invoice date), or a specific calendar date. You should also clearly list payment methods, bank account numbers, or online transfer details.

Question 7

Do you support tax calculations and discounts?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can specify a percentage-based tax rate (like VAT or Sales Tax), custom shipping costs, and flat-rate discount amounts. The editor calculates all sub-totals and grand totals automatically in real-time.

Question 8

How do I add my company logo or digital signature?

Accepted Answer

Use the toolbar buttons to upload your image files. Once uploaded, you can drag them to position and resize them by dragging the corners of the bounding box. When you export to PDF, they will render in the exact positions you placed them.

Question 9

Can I handle multiple currencies?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can click any of the currency buttons in the top toolbar to switch symbols (USD $, EUR €, GBP £, INR ₹, etc.). If you require a symbol not listed, click the '+' button to write your custom symbol.

Question 10

What is the difference between an invoice and a receipt?

Accepted Answer

An invoice is a request for payment sent by a service provider or seller to a buyer before payment is made. It outlines the details of the transaction and payment terms. A receipt, on the other hand, is a document issued after payment has been received, serving as proof of purchase.
