An invoice is an important commercial, accounting and fiscal document

From a commercial perspective, an invoice is a document that allows your business to get paid for the products and/or services it provides to its customers.

From an accounting perspective: an invoice is an accounting supporting document that allows you to record your company's sales.

From a fiscal perspective, an invoice must include a certain number of mandatory mentions and must be kept for several years.

Why not use a free invoice template on Word or Excel?

When an entrepreneur starts their business and needs to write their first invoice to record their first sale: they often make the mistake of searching the internet for a free Excel invoice template.

After some time, their business grows:

  • They now need to write several invoices per week or even per day.
  • They sell more and more different items or services to different customers.
  • They must verify that their invoice numbering is correct.
  • They must check that all their previous invoices are paid and possibly send reminders to bad payers.
  • They must write numerous quotes and follow up on estimates they've sent to prospects.
  • They must find and verify all invoices sent to a customer because this customer is blocking payment for a dubious reason or simply to buy time.
  • They must send a duplicate to one of their customers who has lost the original invoice.
  • They cannot easily find a customer's address or the price of an item.
  • They must check with each invoice that the numbering is correct and follows the continuous sequence.
  • They cannot easily find a customer's address or the price of an item.
  • They must check with each invoice that the numbering is correct and follows the continuous sequence.
  • They must manually calculate their monthly turnover and cash flow.
  • They must remember to backup their Excel invoice files.
  • They must protect their PC against viruses, failures, losses, theft...
  • They must transmit all invoices from the previous quarter to their accountant to encode their accounting.
  • They may need to prepare for a tax audit.
  • ...

And all this in addition to their main activity which generally takes more than 12 hours a day at the beginning and all the other administrative tasks related to managing their business.

At some point, they begin to regret their choice because they notice that they spend more time in front of their computer on Excel for management chores than developing their business.
