Customers - Invoice Delivery Method

The Invoice Delivery Method defines how the system will deliver the Invoices during the Run Print / Email Batch step of the Month End Billing Run. The choices are EMAIL, POST (for printing), and PREM for Print and Email.

  • For Emails:  Make sure that the contact you link to the delivery method has a valid email address.
  • To Print:  These documents will print to the printer specified in the Printer Service Setup.

You can link unique document sales templates to specific clients. These custom layouts need to be created in Report Designer and specified as noted below. If templates aren't linked to a customer, the global custom layout will be used, if it exists, else the default report will be used.
