Creating Bills

To create a bill, click the top right "Add New" button on your Dashboard and choose "Bill".

You will then be taken to an empty bill template, offering a series of text and numerical inputs, which we'll go into now:

Bill Title:
At the top of your bill you'll be able to specify an alternative title for your statement. For bills, this defaults to "Bill".
Bill Description:
Right below your bill title you'll be able to enter a description for your bill, which will later also act as a reference in your list of bills. Keep this description short - near the bottom of your bill you'll be able to provide a more detailed description.
Bill No.

Your bill number sequentially increases with each bill created. To make changes to your bill sequence style, simply adjust it on an bill once - invoicely will automatically detect the change and number any future bills accordingly.
