Contents

Field Description
Invoice Total Label Enter the label to display before the total amount of the entire invoice.
Single Line Above Select this check box to insert a single line above the invoice total.
Double Line Below Select this check box to insert a double line below the invoice total.
Print Total in Invoice Header Select this check box to print a total in the header as well as at the end of the invoice. When you select this option, you enable several formatting options for the total in the invoice header:
  • Invoice Total or Total Now Due: From the drop-down list, choose the value that you want to display, either the total amount of the current invoice or the total amount of the current invoice plus the outstanding accounts receivable amount.

    If you want a label to display next to the total, enter the label in the text entry field next to the drop-down list. Leave this field blank to use no label.

  • Top Margin: Enter a value in inches to determine the amount of space between the page's top margin and the top of the label. As you enter margins and widths, be careful not to cause information to overlap in the header.
  • Left Margin: Enter a value in inches to determine the amount of space between the page's top margin and the top of the label.
  • Label Width: Enter the label's width. If you enter a width that is less than the actual length of the label, the label text is cut off.
  • Column Width: Enter the width for the total amount. If you enter a width that is less than the actual total amount, the total amount is cut off.
  • Font Size: Select the font to use for the label. The default font for new invoice templates is 10 point Arial, but you can specify any font size from 7 points to 14 points. Test the template carefully if you change to a font size other than 10 point.
  • Bold: Select this option to print the total in a bold font.
  • Box Around Invoice Total Label and Value: Select this option to have a box print around the invoice total label and value.
