Invoices

Invoice List

Search, filter and sort the invoice list, choose its columns and download an invoice document

The Invoices page lists every invoice of the dealership. The heading shows the number of invoices, for example "12 Invoices".

Requirements: permission to read invoices (Invoice Access).

Find an invoice

  1. Open Invoices in the sidebar.
  2. Enter text in the search box. Its placeholder reads "Invoice number, customer, make, model, VIN…".
  3. Optional: set From Date and To Date to limit the list by issue date. Choosing the same date in both fields shows that day only.
  4. Optional: select a column heading to sort. The headings Number, Issued and Total sort the list. The default order shows the newest issue date first.
  5. Select a row to open the invoice page.

The empty list reads "No invoices yet" when the dealership has no invoices. It reads "No matching invoices" when the search or the dates match none.

What the search matches

The search compares each word against these values. An invoice must match every word.

  • The invoice number. The digits of a pasted number such as INV-00000042 find the invoice.
  • The customer name.
  • The ID number printed on the invoice.
  • The deal number.
  • The make, model, VIN or plate of a car on any line.

Download a document

  1. In the actions menu of a row, select Download. On the invoice page, select Download at the top.
  2. The PDF opens in a new browser tab.

The dashboard generates the document first when none exists, for example after a failed generation. When the document cannot be opened, the dashboard shows the message "Could not open that document."

Open the document on the invoice page

The invoice page has three tabs.

TabContent
DocumentThe PDF in the viewer of the browser.
LinesThe items, the quantities and the amounts, with a link to the car of a line.
NotesThe internal notes. Notes are never printed and never sent to the customer.

A panel on the side shows the Amounts, the Details, any Custom Fields, the Linked customer and deal, and the Payment Details. The total shows the equivalent in the currency of the dealership when the invoice uses another currency.

Notes

  • Invoices also appear in the Invoices card of a deal page, a customer page and a car page. The card offers a download button and a share switch for each invoice.
  • The download link works for a few minutes. The dashboard creates a new link on every download.
