Automated Entry of Regular Expense Invoices in Eemel.com
With the Recurring Purchase Invoices feature, you can automate the creation of monthly recurring expenses in your purchase ledger. However, each invoice still requires monthly approval and payment.
🔔 Please note: Cost center and accounting allocations must be entered monthly. As of now, these do not save as default values for recurring invoices.
🔹 How to Add a Recurring Purchase Invoice
Go to Purchases → Purchase Invoices.
Select Enter invoice manually.
Upload a picture of the invoice.
Select the image and click Update.
Fill in the date and other invoice details.
Set the recurrence interval (e.g., monthly).
Click Save / Approve.
🔹 How Recurrence Works
Recurring generation is based on the Date field of the original invoice. After each defined interval (e.g., 1 month), the next invoice is created.
Example: Monthly Recurrence
Invoice 1: Created on 01.01.2018 → Date: 01.01.2018
Invoice 2: Created on 01.02.2018 → Date: 01.02.2018
Invoice 3: Created on 01.03.2018 → Date: 01.03.2018
If due dates are set to be two weeks after invoice dates:
Invoice 1: Due 07.01.2018
Invoice 2: Due 07.02.2018
Invoice 3: Due 07.03.2018
🔹 End Date of Recurrence
You can define when the recurring schedule ends. After this date, no new invoices will be generated.
Example:
Start: 01.01.2018
Recurrence: Monthly
End Date: 01.03.2018
→ Last invoice generated: 01.03.2018
