Consolidated Billing or Billing Profile (Bill To)

Consolidated Billing using Billing Profile (Bill To)


You can create one invoice for multiple clients at once by linking them to a Billing Profile (Bill To).

When multiple clients are linked to the same Billing Profile (Bill To), all their tasks, packages, and expenses will appear together when you generate an invoice.

Example

  1. Client Name: Aone Toys

Billing Profile (Bill To): Anurag

  1. Client Name: Super Tiles

Billing Profile (Bill To): Anurag

  1. Client Name: Rahul

Billing Profile (Bill To): Anurag

  1. Client Name: Karan

Billing Profile (Bill To): Anurag

  1. In this case, when you create the invoice and select Anurag in the client field, the system will show all tasks, packages, and expenses belonging to Anurag, Aone Toys, Super Tiles, Rahul, and Karan on the invoice screen.
  2. Select the items you want to bill → enter amount (if needed) → Save.
  3. The invoice will be generated in the name of the Billing Profile (Anurag) including the selected billing items of associated clients.
