How to pay you
Nothing is switched on here, so nothing appears at the foot of the invoice.

Signature
- It calculates. Line totals are rounded before they are added, the way bookkeeping does it — so the figure on the invoice is the figure that lands in the bank, with no rounding drift between them.
- It knows tax can be inside the price, not only added to it. Templates written for one country get this wrong and quietly overcharge or undercharge everyone else.
- The discount comes off before the tax is worked out, because that is the order that is actually correct.
- The arithmetic is checked against a separate, independently written model before this page ships — and against a deliberate attempt to break it.

Coffee-toned ribbons — orange, rust, dark brown and a band of grey — sweeping across cream with a soft speckle at either end. It is the only band in the food group whose darkest mass sits on the right rather than the left. The document is set in monospace with lines in their own tinted blocks and a rail for the balance due, which makes a repeating wholesale order easy to read down.
Beans by the kilo at a trade price — how do I enter it?
Quantity in kilos, rate per kilo. Quantities are decimal, so 12.5 kg is exact and the line total is rounded once, at the line.
Why are the figures in a typewriter face?
Because every digit is the same width, so a column of amounts lines up on the decimal point without any table trickery. On a repeat order that is what makes it checkable at a glance.
When one invoice becomes a hundred
This page makes a document. The bookkeeping spreadsheet keeps the year: what you invoiced, what was paid, what is overdue, and what it all means at tax time — with the same verified arithmetic.

Is anything I type sent to you?
No. The whole thing runs in your browser, including the logo. Your draft is kept in this browser's own storage so it survives a reload, and clearing it removes everything. We never see it and there is nothing to sign up for.
How do I get a PDF?
Press print and choose Save as PDF. Only the document prints — the editing panel disappears. Pick A4 or US Letter above so the margins are right for your country.
What is the difference between tax added to the prices and tax already in them?
If your prices exclude tax, the tax is added on top and the total goes up. If your prices already include it, the total does not change and the tax is separated out of it for the paperwork. Getting this backwards changes what your client owes, which is why it is a choice here rather than an assumption.
Can I issue a credit note?
Yes — put a negative quantity on the line you are reversing. The discount and the tax reverse with it, so a credit note and the invoice it cancels come to exactly zero together.
Why does the unit price allow four decimal places?
Because real prices have them: per litre, per kilometre, per unit. If a price is rounded to cents before being multiplied by a quantity, the line is wrong by more the larger the quantity gets.
