You have four ways to add a new invoice in Spectra. How you create an invoice will depend on the type of invoice that needs to be created.
When creating a session with the Scheduling Wizard, you'll be given the option to also create an invoice. Choose Yes if you want to create a new invoice at that time and the wizard will walk you through creating an invoice for the session.
Open a session record and click Session Invoice in the New group of the ribbon. The Invoice Wizard will walk you through creating an invoice linked to the session.
Open a client record and click Client Invoice in the New group of the ribbon. The Invoice Wizard will walk you through creating an invoice linked to the client.
To create a quick sale invoice, go to the New group on the ribbon of any hub and click Quick Sale. The Invoice Wizard will walk you through creating a quick sale invoice. (For more information see "Quick Sale Invoices.")
DOES IS MATTER WHETHER I CREATE AN INVOICE
FROM A SESSION OR A CLIENT?
YES, IT DOES! An invoice should almost always be created from a Session. The only time you should create an invoice from a Client is if the client is purchasing a product or service from you, but has not completed a session. An example of when a client-based invoice should be used would be when a customer walks in off the street and wants to purchase a frame. When recording a session-based invoice, make sure you are creating the invoice from the actual session the invoice pertains to. |

Double-click on an invoice to open it. To see all of your invoices again, clear the criteria field and then click Enter.
