What is an invoice?
As Per Wikipedia
An invoice, bill or tab is a commercial document issued by a seller to a buyer, relating to a sale transaction and indicating the products, quantities, and agreed prices for products or services the seller had provided the buyer.
Payment terms are usually stated on the invoice. These may specify that the buyer has a maximum number of days in which to pay and is sometimes offered a discount if paid before the due date. The buyer could have already paid for the products or services listed on the invoice. To avoid confusion, and consequent unnecessary communications from buyer to seller, some sellers clearly state in large and/or capital letters on an invoice whether it has already been paid.
Your business name is one of the most important elements of an official invoice template. It shows who you are and establishes your brand. Adding contact information lets your clients know how to contact you if they have any questions about the invoice It also allows them to contact you for future work. You can add your address and cell phone number.
