Invoicing

[Neiltyke]

Hi everyone.
Just started a new business (embroidery/workwear etc) and forgot during our planning stage about invoicing !! I'm thinking about buying some software for the laptop and doing it that way. Is this the best way to go ?? If so, what is the best software to use or are there any other options ? We obviously want the invoices to look professional

Many thanks in advance

Neil

Microsoft Excel is very good for this if you know how to use it. There are loads of ready made templates you can download for free but making your own isn't difficult at all, much cheaper than dedicated software, especially as you will need to keep expenditure low

Cheers. I'll have a look

Welcome, just be careful about logging your invoice numbers so that you don't duplicate

Take a look at Xero, it's user friendly and relatively cheap.

A common free cloud-based accounting system you could use is QuickFile... certainly to get you going anyway.

Very much like Sage in it's nominal ledger etc but a lot of features.
