Description

FastTrack360 supports the ability to assign services to job orders so that tasks performed by an agency to fill a job placement can be billed to the agency’s client. In this release, enhancements have been made to allow services, which have been added to a job order, to be invoiced automatically without the need for back office staff to raise manual invoices.

...

A flag can be set on the auto invoicing options to enforce that the invoice creation date determines the invoice date. If this flag is set, when a user raises an invoice the invoice date will default to the date on which the invoice is created and cannot be changed to another date. Otherwise, the user raising the invoice can set the invoice date to a date other than the invoice creation date.

Benefits

These enhancements facilitate the invoicing of billable services, which have been provided by your business as part of filling a job order, without the need for back office staff to manually raise invoices to bill for the service.

For more information about how services on a job order are auto invoiced, see Automatic Invoicing of Service Fees.

Configuration

To configure auto invoicing for a service, follow the procedure below:

Info

Note the following when configuring auto invoicing options for a service:

  • There can only be one set of invoicing options defined on a service record for a given billing company.

  • Each set of invoicing options is linked to an invoice type account group, which determines the type of invoice or credit note that is to be raised. Therefore, if both invoices and credit notes are to be raised via the auto invoicing process, two separate service records must be created and each record must be linked to a different invoice type account group that references the relevant invoice type (Non Timesheet Based Invoice - Perm/Service and Non Timesheet Based Credit Note - Perm Service respectively).

Note also that the Services Maintenance > Add/Edit Services screen features a display-only field labelled Job Type, which is defaulted to the option of Permanent. The Job Type field is reserved for future use and does not currently affect the ability to assign a service to different types of jobs (i.e. permanent, temporary and contract). For more information, see Service Fees for All Job Types (AIS).
