Invoices

The Invoice Object

A Rutter Invoice represents an invoice issued by the business entity that a customer must pay. Every invoice is linked to an accounts receivable Account, a Customer, Invoice Payments, and Invoice Credit Memos.

The invoice line item contains information regarding the items sold and accounts affected in the invoice. Every invoice line item is linked to a credit Account, Tax Rate, or Item.

Files can be attached to Rutter Invoices in the form of Rutter Attachments.
