Creating an Invoice Run

How to create an Invoice Run

Updated over a month ago

Central to the features of ERP Go is the Invoice Run feature. This is designed to automatically create invoices for your customers.

An invoice run gathers information from your orders. An invoice run generates invoices and creates a batch for you to review.

With the invoice run feature you can:

  • Run specified date invoice runs

  • Use Invoice run codes to separate out invoices into their own run

  • Run depot specific invoicing

  • Run account specific invoicing

  • Ensure you have invoiced for everything you need to

Get Started

Head to the navigation bar > Invoicing > Invoices and Credits and select Invoice Run.

You will come to this screen:

Enter the following details:

  • Name - The Name automatically populates with the current date and time, if you wanted to rename this simply enter your new name in the Name field.

  • Invoice Date - This is the date you would like on the invoice.

  • Invoice Up to Date - All items delivered up to the selected date will be invoiced.

  • Description - You can add in any further details or notes in here

  • Depots - If you have multi-depot, you can run depot specific invoice runs by assigning the depot to the invoice run. If you leave this field blank, this will run the invoice run for all of the depots you have access to

  • Invoice Run Code - If you need to exclude certain orders or customers from an invoice run or do an invoice run for a specific collection of orders or customers, then you can assign an invoice run code here

Note: If you have orders or accounts that have a run code, they will not be included in the invoice run unless you select the run code.

  • Account - To run an invoice run for a specific account, search for the customer and it will only generate invoices for this specific account

Once you have entered all of the above details, click OK to run the invoice run

You will receive a notification when the invoice run has finished and can view and print the invoice batch in Invoice Batches.

If you do it wrong, you can simply delete the batch and invoices and start again. For more information please see our guide for how to delete an invoice batch.

Quick Tip: The invoice run will run in the background so you can carry on using OnRent and you'll be notified by email when it's ready to view!

FAQs

Can I email all of the invoices out in one go?

Yes, simply head to Invoicing > Email Invoices to use our bulk email invoicing tool.

Can I do an invoice run for a select few customers?

You can control which customer will be invoiced by using the Account field – this will only pull in sales orders for that particular customer. However this will only let you select one customer at a time, so can’t specify a range of customers to invoice in one go.
