Calculation Issue... Oct 22, 2009

Dear Jason,

I hope you are doing fine...

Great to finding Proz invoicing feature... I am really interested since it is really reliable...

However, I am having an issue to ask for your help since I have no idea to doing it in here...

An issue I would like to address is that a practice regarding its calculation. I mean there are two little different results have occurred within my invoice that I am only able to sort out such a problem with Excel but I do not know how to do it in here.

Please note the following instances:

- When editing and calculate: 0.075 x 9255 = 694.13 that this matches with my Excel calculation...
- After saving, the result is only 694.12 there is a difference of one (1) cent...

It has just occurred to me to revise my invoice since one of my clients returned to me my invoice submitted so I would have to get it amended soon so that a payment balance shall be at zero. This means that we are needing 694.13 rather than 694.12...

Your kind assistance regarding this issue would be much appreciated...

Great and Green Day... and Kind regards,


Vibol

Receive multiple payments Dec 2, 2009

Hi there,

Thanks again for the good job. I wish that I can add multiple received payments instead of doing them all manually...

pdf formatting...still problematic Dec 7, 2009

Congrats on a great tool...also the main reason I become a paying member of ProZ!

I put my bank info in the Comments section, but when I export to pdf, I lose the formatting and get big spaces between the lines. Anything I/you can do to remedy this?

Thanks for the great work!

And maybe two more columns? Dec 7, 2009

Christiane Lalonde wrote:


However, I think we need a financial overwiew showing the total amount invoiced before tax. What I mean is that when we go on the Financial overview page, the Sales column displays the amounts with taxes.
Is it possible to display the Sales without taxes and then add a "Tax" column on the right? This would be very useful when one wants to know what his//her real earnings are.


Hi Christiane,

This sounds like a good idea, thank you. I'll add this to the invoicing development task list. Thanks for the great feedback.

Hi Jason,

I thought the invoicing system was great before, and now it's even better. Thanks!

I need to report and pay my VAT every quarter. That means looking back at every invoice for the quarter to see how much VAT I charged. Is there some way to show, either on the dashboard or the financial overview (maybe both) or somewhere else, so I could see at a glance, the total amount including taxes, along with a breakdown showing amount before the VAT and then the amount of VAT, for all invoices, but broken down per invoice?

For instance, on the dashboard, there is a column for invoice date, due in, client and amount. Why not two more columns here, one showing amount before any taxes, and one showing taxes (VAT) paid? Perhaps you'd need to allow people to add taxes paid columns, depending on which taxes they are required to charge.

Also what about some place on the invoice, that the client would not see, where we could record that an invoice had been reported in a certain quarter?

Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

I will check the status of the development of this feature and include further specifications (if needed) considering your feedback.

I just discovered that under Tax Reports, if I click on Tax Amounts, I get a breakdown showing date, inv. no., client, tax amount and invoice amount. Was that there when I posted my first comment? It comes very close to what I was talking about. I would add one more column here, showing the amount before taxes.... Then I would have what I requested: I could see at a glance all my invoices, and the amount before taxes, the amount of taxes and the total amount of each invoice.

What about time tracking? Dec 14, 2009

As if you have not already done enough, Jason . . . There is another thread on the forums about time tracking systems. This led me to look for one that works on a Mac; I found PAYMO. It also has an invoicing function, however I'm using it just for the time tracking feature . . . I like the Proz invoicing system. That leads me to ask, is it possible for you to come up with a time tracking feature that could be used both with your invoicing system and independently (just to keep track of time ... See more

Exporting CSV Dec 17, 2009

It seems that the CSV file that is exported from the invoicing program is not recognized by other programs. I've tried to import the export file into several different programs (that support CSV files), but they all claim that the format is wrong. I would really like to be able to import my clients into my own address book.

CSV format may need to be adjusted for import into various programs Jan 14, 2010

Hi Per,

The CSV file you can export from the invoicing program is a just text file with all of your invoicing data. It will probably need to be adjusted for import into other programs. The documentation for those programs should explain what format they require.

To adjust the format to suit your other programs, you can open up the CSV file in a spreadsheet program. You may need to rename the column headings, or change the order of certain columns.

If you still have trouble, please post the names of the programs into which you want to import the data, and I'll see if I can be of more help.

Best regards,

Jason

Can you send a sample "French Type" invoice? Jan 14, 2010

Hi NR_Stedman,

How can I get help to get the system to produce a French Type invoice (I don't mind paying a fee!)


Please send me a sample French Type invoice, and I'll try to add something like it to the list of invoice templates. (Send it to at jason at proz.com).

Thanks for the kind words! Would you mind if I included that in the public list of member testimonials about the invoicing tool?

Thanks,
