A sales invoice is a document that sellers create and issue to buyers to notify them that goods have been shipped or delivered and payment is due. Typically, these types of invoices are only used by businesses that sell products like manufacturers, wholesalers, and retailers. A service-based business typically uses a service invoice.
A sample invoice usually lists the company name and contact information as well as the billing and shipping information of the customer. Additional shipping term information like common carrier, FOB, shipping dates, and terms are also included. Obviously, the goods are listed with a description, quantity, and price, so the buyer will know how much is due to the seller.
Here’s a sales invoice template that you can download and alter for your business. It’s easy to create a custom sample invoice with this template. Simply, enter your product description and place your company information in Excel.
