Invoicing - could it be less difficult

It is extremely difficult to follow some invoicing procedures. Lets say I have 30 different companies call me out to do a job in any given month, LETS say that 1 or 5 of those companies prefer you to invoice on a certain day at the end of the month, IF you send it in any earlier it will be regarded as trash. From this day to this day-- invoice us or else... some MAIL only, some you can FAX, some say EMAIL ME------ YIKES - I wish there were a maintained list of companies and their corresponding payment/invoicing policies. Why must I set 20 alarms for invoicing and/or should I hire a team for account receivables? Ho Hum thanks

BE PERFECT when you invoice or you will not get paid. I think the "hoops" prohibit some from getting their checks...I am sure some notaries believe their rigid procedures and demands actually mean they can stiff you legally.

Funky horse feathers.
Reminds me of those dang cubes that come out the wrong size when you are trying to cube up potatoes into 1/4" cubes...cannot have those little misfits in the pot.

This surprises me.

I'm pretty casual about my invoices....in Word, and not all that glorifying.

In another life, I would have done Microsoft Publisher and colors and all that...now, it's just as valid an invoice in simple Word format as the fancy crap.

A bill is a bill, IMO.

This was my way of laughing at the hoops.

I am a TitleGab. I agree. In fact, my boss said the same thing in my last review..."Girl, you are a 'TitleGab' Stop Gabbing, or....."

I'm trying but it's so hard.

Yes, and it's more of a pain if you need to invoice them over and over and over......

I am new to all this...but have you considered maybe setting up an excel spread sheet? or something similar to that. Then you could have it sort which ever way you wanted...JMO
