Step-by-Step Guide 📋
- Why Use Billing Schedules? 📅
- Billing schedules define how and when to bill your customers.
- They’re perfect for recurring invoicing (monthly, quarterly, or custom terms).
- Navigate to Billing Schedules 🗂️
- Go to: Lists > Accounting > Billing Schedules > New.
- Set Up the Billing Schedule ✍️
- Name: Give your billing schedule a clear name (e.g., “10% Quarterly”).
- Initial Amount: Enter the initial billing amount (e.g., $500 or a percentage of the total sale).
- Payment Terms: Select the terms for the initial payment.
- Recurrence Frequency: Choose how often the invoices should recur (daily, weekly, monthly, custom).
- Recurrence Count: Set the number of invoices to generate after the initial billing.
- Advanced Options ⚙️
- Relative to Previous: Check this to link subsequent bills to the completion of prior invoices.
- Amount per Recurrence: Define how much to bill in each cycle as a dollar amount or percentage.
- In Arrears: Select this to bill at the end of each period (uncheck for billing at the start).
- Save Your Billing Schedule 💾
- Once everything is set, click Save to finalize.
- Private vs. Public Schedules:
- Private: Only visible in transactions where they are created.
- Public: Must be created from an estimate or sales order and can be reused.
- Key Reminders 🛡️
- Review schedules with mixed dollar and percentage fields carefully to avoid overbilling.
- Ensure billing schedules align with your contract terms to prevent discrepancies.
