Prerequisites for Batch Sales Invoice
Create a Product
To be able to create automated Sales Invoice Plans you will need to create and configure your product in Zumzum Financials. Follow the instructions to ensure you have added the product to a price list and you are able to select the product on an opportunity.
Create a Sales Invoice Plan Template
Sales Invoice Plan Templates are assigned to products so that Sales Invoice Plans are created using the settings on the template. Please ensure you have a Sales Invoice Plan Template created and marked as Active.
Associate a Sales Invoice Plan Template to a Product
Sales Invoice Plans may be created from products associated to opportunities by selecting the “Create Sales Invoice Plan” checkbox. Users may select this checkbox manually or administrators may automate the selection of this checkbox. Ensure you have created and associated a Sales Invoice Plan Template to a Product.
How to Process a Batch Sales Invoice Job
Create a Sales Invoice Plan on an Opportunity
Sales Invoice Plan Templates are associated to Products on a Salesforce Opportunity that require repeat Sales Invoices generated in the system. For example, if you wish to sell your customer an annual subscription and wish to invoice the customer each month, then you would associate a Sales Invoice Plan Template (with a 12 monthly frequency) to the subscription product, which will generate a Sales Invoice Plan for invoices each month.
Ensure you have generated a Sales Invoice Plan for each product on your opportunity.
How to create Batch Sales Invoices from Scheduled Sales Invoice
Every Opportunity product which has a Sales Invoice Plan Template associated to it and has had the “Create Sales Invoice Plan” set to true will create a Sales Invoice Plan. Each Sales Invoice Plan contains the Scheduled Sales Invoices and the Scheduled Sales Invoice Lines.
A user is able to create a batch of sales invoices in the system and bulk post or email those to the customers. Follow these steps to create a Batch Sales Invoice Job from the Scheduled Sales Invoices in the system.
How to Edit a Batch Sales Invoice Job
You may have existing Batch Sales Invoice Jobs that you wish to process in order to post invoices to the ledger or batch email sales invoices to your customers. Once you have initially created a Batch Sales Invoice Job, the record is stored in the system so that you may process when you are ready.
Follow these steps to edit your Batch Sales Invoice Job.
