In the PurePro application, invoices can either be generated automatically by the system using the timesheet data (Bill Rate) or can be created manually by the users. Auto generated invoices [4] use the bill rate added in timesheets and are automatically created when the users provide a bill rate in a timesheet. These invoices are timesheet dependent and can be manipulated by updating the corresponding timesheet data. Manual Invoices can be created by users using the invoices page. These invoices can be generated against a specific customer, however manual invoices do not contain timesheet/worker related data like auto generated invoices. The General Layout of the Invoices screen comprises of the following: -
Search Bar: - The search bar can be used to search for a specific invoice using the invoice reference
Filters: - Users have the option to filter out the invoice list based on user preference. Various options are available to customise which invoices are shown in the list.
Invoices List: - A List view of all available invoices in the system for the current/selected period. The list view shows various information related to the invoices, including but not limited to references, week, status, customer reference, etc.
Sort Control: - Users have the option to sort the list view as per their preference using the on-screen controls e.g., sort using invoice status.
Confirm All Invoices: - Used to confirm all the “draft” invoices collectively rather than confirm each invoice individually [3]
Edit [1]: - Used to edit a manual invoice [2]
Delete [1]: - Used to delete a draft invoice
Download: - Used to download an invoice in pdf format
Confirm: - used to confirm an individual invoice [3]
Create: - Used to create a new invoice. Users have the option to create a manual invoice, credit note or a timesheet adjustment.
Show: - Users can select the number of invoices displayed on a page, this also shows the total number of invoices available in the system and how many are being displayed on a page.
Pagination: - Informs the users of all available pages, and the current selected page number
