Proforma Invoice Operations

This routine provides analysis and review of proforma invoices generated prior to the issuance of invoices.

You can also issue the proforma minute, that is, a preview of the invoice. The proforma minute is normally used when the customer requests the delivery of hours report before the invoice issue for approval.

Some changes that can be performed in the proforma when in Analysis status are:

Discount percentage or value in Time Sheets value of the proforma.
Addition percentage or value in Time Sheets value of the proforma.
Discount percentage or value in Time Sheets per case.
Paying customers (adding, deleting, changing percentage, discount, contact, payment method, payment terms, bank, currency, language, type of report).
Total value and hours of the time sheets.
Value/hour per professional.
Transfer of entries to another client/case.
Entries delivery for WO.
Removing entries from proforma invoice
Entries association (Time sheet, expenses and fixes prices) to proforma.

Check and/or configure parameter MV_JCOTSUG for the quotation suggested in the printing queue.

When changing Time sheets, you can keep the original time and/or professional history (as reviewed professional and reviewed time are changed). Changes in other entries, such as fixed price and expenses, for example, have no history or fields that store the original value.

Tip:

The button New enables the addition of entries in proforma, as long as the entry is in the period filtered to associate in proforma issue and is part of the case associated to contract/contracts junction related to proforma.

Important:

In the proforma issue process, the calculated value based on values range is saved in the fields Inv Range Value, of Contract and Cases related to it, and in Cases, the apportioned value of each one is saved, respecting the proportion criteria of values according to parameter MV_JDIVCAS.
