Overview

An invoice is rejected when the invoice number, PO reference or tax number is missing, or when the total does not add up. This one-page invoice puts the supplier, customer, references, line items, VAT, deposit, balance, due date and bank details where accounts payable teams look for them.

The sample shows Fallowfield Advisory billing a pottery manufacturer £6,800.00 for three consulting lines, plus 20% VAT, with a 30% deposit already paid and the balance due in 30 days. Replace the header, invoice number, PO reference, lines and bank details with your own, then check the totals.

Useful for

  • A freelance consultant billing day rates to a client whose accounts team needs a PO reference
  • A small business invoicing a deposit and balance, with VAT shown on the total
  • A bookkeeper checking that numbering, tax and payment terms are on every invoice before it is sent

What's included

  • Supplier and customer details with invoice number, dates, PO reference and terms
  • Totals strip showing the invoice total, VAT rate, balance due and deposit paid
  • Three sample line items with quantity, rate and line total
  • Subtotal, VAT, deposit, balance, due date, bank details and late-payment terms

Questions

Is this invoice template free?

Yes. Make a copy in Google Docs and edit it in your own Drive. You do not need to install anything or create an account beyond your Google account.

Are Fallowfield Advisory and the figures real?

No. Fallowfield Advisory, the customer, the people named, the VAT number, bank details and every amount are fictional sample data. Replace them with your own.

Does the template calculate VAT for me?

No, it is a document and the figures are typed in. Calculate VAT on the subtotal, round once, and check that the lines, VAT and total add up before you send it.
