Multiple invoices for a service
For some services, you can run more than one type of invoice. You can set up rules to determine which type of invoice is generated.
This table shows the rule types available which are defined in the Settings option:
| Option | Notes |
|---|---|
| eInvoice Type Translation | If your ERP has specified the invoice type to be generated, then it must be translated here to be an output type recognized in LSP |
| Customer eInvoice Maintenance | Assign the invoice type that is usually produced for a given customer |
| Default Invoice Type | Select the Default Invoice Type for generation. The value set in this option will automatically be used for all your invoices unless the eInvoice Type Translation or Customer eInvoice Maintenance is selected |
For example, you can use a service to generate three different types of invoice:
| Type | Description | Percentage of customers |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Business to Business (B2B) | 90% |
| 2 | Business to Government (B2G) | 8% |
| 3 | Other | 2% |
You can set the system up in this way:
- Default
Use the default code for type 1.
- Customer eInvoice Maintenance
Define the two type 2 customers.
- eInvoice Type Translation
Define your invoice type in your ERP for type 3.
This logic is performed by LSP:
- If the invoice type is sent from your ERP, then that type is generated.
- If the invoice is for one of your two B2G customers, then that type is generated.
- Otherwise, the default invoice type is generated.
Note: Ensure that your ERP supports
eInvoice Type Translation functionality.
