Finance module
The billing module got replaced by three shiny new modules. The finance module allows you to create
- Quotes
- Orders
- Invoices
- Purchase orders
- Purchase invoices
The contracts module allows you to create repeating invoices like a subscription and the catalog module can be used to populate all the products you sell.
The new modules come with an improved workflow for contracts and debtor management. You can create profiles where you can configure after what time a customer should be reminded about payments about outstanding invoices. They will receive an easy overview of their outstanding invoices with the total amount that needs payment. The document contains links to an online page where they can pay directly via an online payment provider such as:
- PayPal
- MultiSafePay
- Mollie.com
- Or others as they are easy to add by us for you!
Group-Office makes it easy to send out your subscription invoices and remind your customers about outstanding
payments.
