Invoicing

Your sales and your purchases

Invoicing brings together the invoices you issue and the ones you receive. On one side, a full legal cycle with continuous numbering; on the other, a processing chain that starts from the received document and runs through to payment.

What invoicing is for

Two mirrored flows, built on the same references as the rest of your management.

  • Issue numbered, compliant invoices that are ready to send, with their PDF and their reminders.
  • Drop in a supplier invoice: it is analyzed, matched to the right third party and allocated to the right accounts.
  • Both flows reuse your third parties, your chart of accounts, your bank accounts and your vault.

Sales and purchases: two different logics

A sales invoice is a document you produce: the number is yours, React Box allocates it at issuance, and it must stay continuous within a fiscal year. A purchase invoice is a document you receive: the number belongs to the supplier, and the work consists of extracting its data, allocating it to the right accounts, then tracking its payment.

Note

Both flows come with a business organization's subscription: neither sales nor purchases require a module to be enabled.

The four building blocks

What each flow involves, from document to accounting entry.

  • Sales cycle

    A freely editable draft, then issuance, which freezes the invoice and assigns its final number.

  • Purchase cycle

    Document upload, automatic analysis, review, recording, then payment tracking.

  • Vault archiving

    Every invoice issued or received has its document in the vault, accessible to your accounting firm.

  • Accounting allocation

    Expense accounts per line, a deductible VAT account, and the bank account used to collect or to pay.

Getting started with invoicing

Three steps for a first complete cycle.

  1. 1

    Complete your invoice settings

    Fill in your tax identity and your numbering format: without them, no invoice can be issued.

  2. 2

    Issue your first sales invoice

    Pick the customer, add the lines, check the preview, then issue to lock in the number.

  3. 3

    Upload a purchase invoice

    Drop in the PDF you received: the analysis pre-fills the draft, leaving you only to verify and record it.
