How to rename the document type
In the Bookipi, you have the flexibility to rename document types to suit your business needs. By default, the system includes document types such as Invoices, Estimates, Credit Notes, Delivery Notes, and Purchase Orders. However, you can customize these names, for example, changing "Invoice" to "Tax Invoice" to align with your preferred terminology or local business requirements.
This guide explains how to rename document types in the Bookipi Invoice mobile app.
Step 1: Tap ‘More’
Tap ‘More’ in the bottom-right corner of the screen.

Step 4: Select a document
Choose the document type you would like to customize.
Step 5: Rename the document title
