Invoicing

With the invoicing package of MICE Operations you immediately convert your event into a (down payment) invoice.

From event to concept invoice

You can create an invoice directly from the event dashboard, which is then prepared as a draft invoice in the invoicing module.

In the event dashboard you can always see the billed amount.

Product order on invoice

The order of products on the invoice is determined by the order of products in the event's schedule: packages are added first, then single products and finally products added to the activities.

Include/exclude free lines

Decide with one click whether you want to include or exclude free (€0,-) product lines to the invoice. Quickly create clean invoices without unnecessary information.


Down payment invoice

When creating an invoice you can also enter a percentage of the amount to be invoiced, then a draft down payment invoice is created. The amount that is calculated remains stored in the event dashboard so that the amount is credited with the final invoice.

While creating a new invoice, select 'brief invoice' and enter a percentage.

Do you want to create a payment invoice without VAT? Select 'brief invoice', manually add a price at 0% and delete the other lines.


Credit invoice


Create an invoice without creating an event first

You can also create an invoice without first creating an event. Go directly to Billing (via the blue menu bar) and click on '+ create invoice'. Select a customer and add a product to the

invoice.

Note that this invoice will not be included in the turnover report.


Invoice details

Billing address
The billing address can be entered when creating or editing a customer. If no details are entered, the customer's postal address will be retrieved.

Reference

It is possible to enter a cost centre or PO number in the reference field.

Multiple events on one invoice

You can continue to replenish a customer's invoices from multiple events until the invoice is sent. More information.

Edit invoice

Still need to make an adjustment? We advise you to make adjustments directly in the event dashboard. Adjustments in the invoicing module are not made in the event dashboard or in the reports.

Split events

By duplicating the concept invoice you can indicate per invoice which organisation it should go to and you can easily remove and add customer data and product items.

Invoice overview

The invoice overview shows all your concept, open and paid invoices. The system also indicates when a reminder or deposit needs to be sent out.

At the top of the overview you can find some total amounts.

These are:

  1. TOTAL UNSENT INCL. VAT
    The total value of all concept invoices (and approved invoices), so not sent.

  2. TOTAL SENT EXCL. VAT
    The total value of all open invoices (open or partly paid), not taking into account possible partial payments.

  3. TOTAL SENT INCL. VAT
    Idem, but including VAT

  4. TOTAL OPEN INCL. VAT
    The total value of credit, taking into account possible partial payments.

Add a file as attachment to an invoice message

It is possible to add attachments to the invoice message. To do this, first go to the invoice. Click 'send'. You are now in the screen in which you can add the invoice message before it is sent. Click 'add file' and select a file. The file is now added as an attachment.

Note that we do not recommend adding attachments to messages due to increasing privacy measures by email services, which may increase the chance of your message being marked as spam. Instead, add a link to the file in the message.

Send invoice with MICE (invoice message, reminders and reminders)

The system directly sends invoices and indicates when a reminder should be sent.

Setting message templates you create your own standard message for each invoice message, reminder or exhortation.

The invoice is sent with the invoice attached as a PDF file.

You can always add an extra email address (in CC or BCC).

Invoice numbering

You can start halfway through the year, you enter your last invoice number and the next invoice will be provided with the correct number.

Personalize

You can add your own letterhead to the invoice template.

CSV file for accounting package

From the invoicing overview, you can directly export a CSV file and transfer it to your accounting package.

Setting a default BCC email address for invoicing

Enter a BCC email address to which all invoices are sent automatically. You can also enter an email address from your accountant or a scan program.

On request. Please contact info@miceoperations.com or send a message via the chat.
