SliQ automatically chooses a new invoice number when creating a new invoice but the number can be edited if necessary.

When a customer is selected on the invoice, the terms are set to those stored in the customer record. The terms for the invoice can be changed to a different value if desired.

Date

When an invoice is created, this field is set to the current date but the date can be changed if desired.

Our Quote

If the invoice was created from a quote, this field will contain the original quote number. The field value can be edited. If the field is blank, it will not be included on the printed invoice.

SalesPerson

This field can be used to enter the name of the sales person raising the invoice. Using the dropdown on the right of the field allows easy selection of existing sales person names.

To edit or delete the names of existing sales people, see Editing Lists. Note that editing a list will not affect the values already entered into invoices or quotes.
