Invoice

A clean invoice that lists what was done or sold, the total, and when payment is due.

Good for: Freelancers, contractors, and small businesses that want to get paid for work or goods.

Before you sign

Give each invoice its own number and keep a copy.
Say plainly how and when you want to be paid.
If you charge sales tax, add it as its own line in the description.
