Invoicing for partial payment / advanced payments in ongoing projects |
TOM offers a simple feature for creating several invoices from one project, allowing you to create advance or partial payment invoices for ongoing projects. You can view all project invoices in the main project screen. To close a project entirely you have to declare it as finally invoiced (main project / Invoice tab).
Invoicing a singular sub-project This is the easiest way of creating a partial invoice: to do so select Invoice sub-project from the main icon bar in the SP window.
Invoicing several sub-projects in a partial invoice This function is the same as the normal invoicing procedure with the difference that you have to check the "Partial invoice" option. You thereby bypass the check for a completion date in the main project. Also, the project will be kept open for future invoicing, i.e. it won't be given an invoice date.
In some cases certain sub-projects need to be excluded from the invoice, while others within the same project need to be invoiced. To do so activate the Special project option in the sub-projects you want to exclude.
Declaring a project as fully invoiced There are two ways of completing the "invoiced" status in a project:
In both cases the date of the last invoice will be used as the invoice date for the project. |
