Additional Substitutions on Repeat Invoices

10th December, 2009

When you’re setting up a repeat invoice, you can use variables like %y and %m  which will be replaced with the current year and month when the actual invoice is created.

We also had the option for %m+1 which will be replace with the name of the next month. We’ve just added %m+2, %m+3, %m+4 and %m+5 so you can refer to months more than one month ahead.

So if you were billing every quarter for a service, you can set the description as “Service provide for period of %m+1 to %m+3”.
 
If you used that description on an invoice set to be created in January then when the invoice is created the text would say “Service provide for period of February to April”

Editing your Chart of Accounts

18th November, 2009

We’ve never had one central place where you can edit what accountants would call a Chart of Accounts or nominal codes.

Instead we’ve always had three distinct areas – Sales Types, Outgoing Types and Bank Transaction Types.

We’ve now added one central page where you can edit all 3 of the above types of code, as well as move codes from one area to another (ie, make an Outgoing Type and Bank Transaction Type)

You can also easily set whether it’s a turnover code or an expense code.

Once logged in to you account click on the Settings tab and choose Chart of Accounts from near the bottom of the page
