Bill a client for work you have done
Finished a project or ready to bill for an agreed stage of work? Give the client an invoice showing what they are paying for and when payment is due. If they paid a deposit, show only the remaining amount as due.
Invoice example for a freelance project
A freelance designer is billing a client for a website project:
- Website design: 1 × ₹20,000 = ₹20,000
- Extra revisions: 2 × ₹1,500 = ₹3,000
- Invoice total: ₹23,000
- Amount already paid: ₹5,000
- Balance due: ₹18,000
The project name and revisions are listed separately, so the client can see how the total was worked out.
Make your invoice step by step
- Choose a layout, currency, and paper size. Enter your business and client details.
- Add the invoice number, issue date, and due date. List each product or service with its quantity and price.
- Add tax where it applies, the amount already paid, and instructions for payment. Check the total and amount still due before generating the PDF.
Add products and services in a way the client can understand
For a product
Enter the product name, number of units, and price for one unit. A short description can be added when the product name is not enough.
For a service
Enter the service name and the agreed price. Quantity can mean hours, sessions, days, or one complete project. Explain this in the description so the client knows what is being charged.
Use the invoice number, due date, and payment status
Invoice number: Give every invoice a different number. A simple format such as INV-2026-001 makes an invoice easier to find later.
Issue date: This is the date the invoice is created.
Due date: This tells the client when payment is expected.
Payment status: Select unpaid, fully paid, or partly paid. When part of the invoice has been paid, enter the amount received so the remaining balance is shown.
Do you need an invoice or a receipt?
An invoice shows what a client has been charged and how much is still due. A receipt normally confirms that a payment has already been received.
If you only need proof of payment, make a payment receipt instead. If part of this invoice has already been paid, keep using the invoice and enter the amount received so the remaining balance is clear.
