Transactional Documents (Invoices, Sales Orders and Purchase Orders) can be configured to match your business and product/service delivery.
Change the Line Item table columns displayed in the application.
As an example we will discuss the Sales Invoice Document. The same principles apply to the other Document Templates.
A number of standard Document Templates such as Time and Materials, Services, etc. are available.
Each Template is relevant for different types of businesses, such as product and service companies.
While working in a document, you can change the Template directly via the Template drop-down list. (See below) Changing the Template will affect the page layout, the Line Item table, and the printed Document.
The Document template can be changed at any time.
To change the default Document Template, from the Document Action Bar click ‘Configure‘.
The Document’s configuration page will open. (shown below).
Select the field next to ‘Default Sales Invoice Template‘.
From the drop down, select the appropriate template, such as ‘Time and Materials‘.

If your company wants to print Documents with a specific style, or content it can be done via the ‘Custom Print Style’ tab.
To print Sales Invoices with special terms/conditions, or with the logo in a different place you can upload custom printing styles for all Documents. This provides great flexibility, and effectively allows you to design your own printed styles.
Upload Custom styles via the Customer Print Styles tab using XSL Formatting Objects standard.
If you require more information about this feature please contact Customer Services.
