Before you begin

Some steps in the set-up will require SheepCRM's involvement, please make sure you have the following information to provide to us (or have already provided) before getting started:

  • URL to your organisation's Logo, hosted externally

  • HEX code colour for your organisation (used for the theme)

Enabling invoicing

The set-up and management settings for Invoices can be found at Settings > Invoicing and Finance. The Invoice Settings and Additional Settings sections contain information that will appear on the invoice.

Default Template

You can select the template to use when creating invoices. For more information on templates, please view this article.

Payment Details

Enter in any information that you would like to be present on the invoice, this is typically to outline any specific requirements or instructions when making offline payments.

Additional Reference Phrase

If you use an external reference or purchase order number, you can enter your specific term or word for it.

Disable Tax Rates?

If your organisation is not VAT registered, toggle whether the invoice should show tax rates.

Logo Address (https://)
