I’ve made my first invoice! Feeling like a smart little cookie. You did scare me when you said invoices aren’t legally binding so people can still refuse to pay you. Am hoping I get paid for my contract work
I live in Japan and recently got a job that includes accounting affairs, which must be done in English and is a totally new field for me. This video helps learn the basics of invoicing. Easy to understand. Thank you for your brilliant work!
preparing for an interview as an administrative analyst working with invoices, this was a good refresh on some accounting basics that i wouldve lost if i relied purely on academic experience, thank you
I live in Canada. I used to work for a company that does wholesale selling and I agree with you. We gotta make sure that invoices are signed or else the customers will deny the existence of the invoice and won't pay it. Really a pain in the ass. Thank you for this video. I was looking for AR/AP topic and somehow ended up here lol.
yeah.... i am... you may make a another video on " the differences between transaction and event." for example -($5000 paid as a rent of office premises is a transaction) where as ( On 1st september I paid rent $5000 is a transaction as well as event also... and (On march , after the sale of goods $5000 , he is left with the closing stock $8000 is an event..)🤔😑😥😕😓😓 how.???.. i'm getting confused..... plz make a video on the diffrences between transaction and event.... plz help..😌😌
Thanks for your question! That's an interesting one. To be honest, I've never really had to distinguish between Event and Transaction before. After having a read online it appears as though event can be interpreted in a couple of different ways which makes the term a bit ambiguous. Definition #1 (Broad Definition) - An event is a 'thing' that happens. This may result in a transaction if it affects the financial resources of a business. So a transaction may or may not result from an Event. Definition #2 - An event relates to the result of a transaction on a companies balance sheet. It sounds like you are using this definition. So when you say 'left with closing stock of $8000'... that would describe the event. Whereas 'the sale of goods of $5000' would be the transaction. Does that make any sense?
@@allpurposeconstructionwiz I'm not opposed to it, she's just not helping me figure it out and I'm still confused lol Like, she wants me to do an invoice, something I've never done before, and proceeds to force me to figure it out lol
That creates .accountability. you have an outstanding mother. Don't stop building your Present ... never plateau. When you see the loop that's the warning sign....😊
Ofcuz she won’t help u, that’s how u try to learn from ur environment. Do u pay someone or a shop to get something u want? How did they do it? Why do they give u receipts? What do these numbers on receipt means? U need to see and learn by urself. If she teaches you, u are going to get lazy or distracted.
Thanks this help, I finally got a job in accounting after a long time of searching, one of my main tasks are basically issuing invoices for our clients and enter them in the accounting software system, I never done this before, but it looks easy enough.
Great video explaining all the details about correct invoicing. However, I think QuickBooks, Xero and Freshbooks are often overblown for a lot of small business owners. They're complex and require quite a bit of learning to not mess up things. A simpler invoicing-only system such as InvoiceBerry is not only easier to get used to, but it helps the business owner to focus on their job and leave some of the heavier accounting part to their accountant/bookkeeper at the end of the year.
As a Hong Kong student, I love your accounting video as they astutely articulate the point, but I often have to press 0.75 to follow the video, hope my english improve. P.S. just sharing feeling, not to blame, that's a normal speed for a native, I would speak such fast in my own language
Was looking for some videos about saving important papers like expired licences, invoices etc as too difficult to keep all of them, happened to see your video. It was interesting to watch. Your explanation is very good.
Thank you for the straight forward and informative video, this was particularly helpful as I'll soon be starting a new job as a Accounts Assistant with a local accountancy firm where I am in the UK. Part of my job will consist of processing invoices and resolving queries related to them so this video really does help a lot!
great bit of information , ive just started out as a sole trader in the uk and had no idea how to even set up an invoice let alone what was needed, still a bit hazy as your video was for a service to a buyer where as im looking for one with work done for a company, so i need to work the tax needed and overtime rate to send to the accounts department, but im sure ill get there lol. keep up the great work.
This video is awesome! Your way of explaining is really simple and straightforward, plus the video is short, short and simple is the best all the way! Really appreciate you 😊
Heyy.....dude Am I first Indian to visit your channel 😊 I don't know why but your teaching style is very different from others...... Well I understand "what is invoice"
Hey, im doing an introduction to managerial accounting at university this semester, could you do a whole review of the subject and what to watch out for/learn, really enjoy your videos
Yes, if you raise a sales invoice then there should be a corresponding journal. Typically this would be Credit Revenue (to increase it) and Debit Accounts Receivable (to increase it)
Simple Easy and great video, me and my dad started our custom cabinets business and he leaves me to the task to do all this stuff this vid was relly helpful also how do we charge taxes??
Quick question: what if you aren't familiar with tax law or are unsure whether your service even requires additional tax? If I work commission work and agreed to £10 per hour, 10 hours a week, totalling £100 a week, do I invoice just the £100 for the week's work or do I need to add tax to it?
no no no. dont say thanks for watchingg. Im saying Thank You for this video i learned clearly way better than the last 2 years w/ my accounting teacher.
Hi, I have a few questions. Is there a way to put a section on the invoice to show a deposit or a retainer fee? Also, if a client decides to pay using other methods of payment (check, cash, Venmo, etc.), is there a way to note this on the invoice? I'm using QuickBooks Self Employed
this si the type of man we should be hiring to teach our teen everything about business. God know it would be much more beneficial than have the crap they are being forced to learn
Great video.... but no where can I see where the client should pay? No bacs option. Can you add this on the invoice. ? I’m confused by the QuickBooks options.
Thanks for the video. But how exactly does the buyer pay once the invoice has been sent? Will the seller send a payment request like via paypal or debit card?
Hi James, I'm a self-employeed software engineer in Canada. My "emplyor" requires me to send invoice at the end of month for payment. Can I create invoice on QuickBook online by myself?
Thanks for the lesson. Pls explain this statement for me. What does it mean to extend the invoicing into cashflow based on average payment days by a customer.
Can you use a virtual address or PO Box for your business address on the invoice? Not sure how comfortable I feel giving my home address out to every client, since my LLC is registered at my home address.
Hi ! Enjoyed the simplicity, yet entertaining, quality of your QBO video. Confused on Client Payment: Received vs PAID + CLOSED. Can you please answer? Easy explanations are rare. Appreciate! (I am QBO 2020; considerer me newbie-ish)
