Jingle Bills, Jingle Bills, SnapBill's on the way... :)
Seasons Greetings, Snapsters!
Time to wrap up yet another year, and in keeping with the festive spirit that December brings, we've added a few feature "gifts" to the system.
SnapBill users with contract type services or packages (i.e. mobile contracts/rental and lease agreements) can now make use of the system and set service or package end dates, without having to track when the contract will end.
Pro-forma invoices are also available for those who require them, please read below to find out more and note our important billing dates for December.
Thank you for your continued support throughout 2013, SnapBill promises awesome support for 2014 and we're determined to continuously better your billing experience.
We wish all our users a great festive season and be assured that while you take your well deserved December break, SnapBill will continue to automate your billing ;)
"Snapbill really is an awesome product! As a small business they helped me to look professional in my invoicing and keep track of what's going on with all my payments. They have really good technical support!"
Given the chaotic time of year (and with many public holidays), we would like to simplify all your transactions for you, to do this we require that ALL your debit batches for December/January be submitted to us before the 20th of December 2013.
Any debit batches submitted outside of this date cannot be guaranteed to run timeously.
If you have any questions regarding how to submit early batches then please get in touch.
Important Updates
Introducing: Pro Forma Invoices
"In trade transactions, a pro forma invoice is a document that states a commitment from the seller to sell goods to the buyer at specified prices and terms. It is used to declare the value of the trade. It is not a true invoice, because it is not used to record accounts receivable for the seller and accounts payable for the buyer. Simply, a 'Proforma Invoice' is a Confirmed Purchase Order where buyer and Supplier agree on the Product Detail and cost to be shipped to buyer."
Activate your Pro-forma Invoices:
1. Go to: Setup > Billing > Invoicing 2. In the Invoicing Options table, look for the field type "Quote/Pro-forma Invoice" 3. In the drop down select "Pro-forma Invoice".
You are now ready to send Pro-forma Invoices to your clients:
1. Go into the client's account in SnapBill and click Invoice center from the left navigation menu. 2. Select Pro-forma Invoice
In the Invoice editor table enter the description, unit cost & quantity for your first invoice line.
To add another line in your invoice click the green ‘plus’ icon. To delete a line click the red ‘cross’ icon.
When you have finished click Save Pro-forma Invoice.
SnapBill now allows for package end / expiry dates.
This is particularly useful for contract type packages i.e mobile contracts, which will discontinue the issuing of invoices and the collection of payment at a specified date.
