The Statement cum Invoice (SCI) function can be used to bill for multiple periods and/or charges. Multiple invoices will be generated but consolidated in a single SCI statement. In April, we added a new ‘Recurring Batch’ feature at the SCI Batch Invoice page that can be configured for the system to automatically generate SCI batch invoices based on the user’s pre-defined schedule settings. Hence, instead of users manually creating a new SCI batch every quarter, you can now set up this auto-recurring batch schedule to ease the task of regularly generating invoices. More information on how to use this function is as follows:
a. Invoice > SCI Batch Invoice - Added ‘+ Recurring Batch’ Button for Recurring Batch Setting |
b. New Recurrent SCI Setting Page |
c. Add New Recurrent SCI Schedule - ‘Auto Generate SCI’ Option |
The next enhancement is also for the ‘Recurring Batch’ feature at the SCI Batch Invoice page. If Admins prefer not to use the auto schedule option as described above, there is an alternative for manual billing. When adding a new recurrent batch schedule, you can select 'Save Manual Sche<>dule' to save the default settings for the recurring SCI and manually click the ‘Generate’ button to process upcoming SCI batches at any preferred time. This provides users with the flexibility of manual invoice generation yet simplifies the billing steps. Additional details are as follows:
a. New Recurrent SCI Setting Page |
b. Add New Recurrent SCI Schedule - ‘Save Manual Schedule’ Option |
c. Manual Recurrent SCI Schedule - Display Checkbox for Select Schedule and ‘Generate SCI’ Button |
In April, we also enhanced the date selection in the Reports module for the following reports:
