What You Need to Know About Invoicing

Your Holvi business bank account does not only offer you business banking with integrated bookkeeping features, you can also create and send invoices to your customers.

In this section you will learn how to send your first invoice, manage the invoicing status for paid or credited invoices and set up a reference number for international invoices. You can also learn about the benefits of using e-Invoicing.

The full functionality of the invoicing is included in the grower plan. If you are on the starter plan, you may test the functionality with 3 invoices per month.

First Steps

Creating Your First Invoice

You can create an invoice in the Invoicing tab in the browser or in the Holvi App. Create a new invoice, fill in the details and save. 

You can either download a PDF version of your invoice or send it via email directly to the recipient. You can find more information on the invoicing setup and sending your first invoice here.

Matching an invoice with a payment

When an invoice is paid using the correct reference number, the incoming payment is automatically linked to the invoice. Payments that arrive without a reference number end up in the category Uncategorised. If you want to match an invoice with a payment manually, simply go to the invoice and select mark as paid in order to select the payment.
