What Is a Modern Invoice Used For?

The modern invoice design allows you to stay ahead of the curve. While you could bill your clients with a carbon-copy printed invoice through snail mail, you should get with the times and send your invoices electronically.

Whether you are a small business owner, freelancer, painter or even a dog walker, a modern invoice can be used to notify your clients of charges that have been made to their accounts for the goods or services that you’ve provided them.

Using invoices as a way to maintain financial records allows you to have all pertinent financial information at hand come tax time. Here are some other key reasons to use a modern invoice.

  • Keep track of missed deadlines and late payments
  • Record client account information
  • Document important financial information
  • Record details necessary to file taxes
  • Make note of outstanding debts and debtors
  • Detail services provided
  • Keep bookkeeping quick and simple
