CIS deductionsĪs many of our customer businesses operate under the CIS Scheme we have added a new facility to the invoice area. This ensures all sums still balance when options such as Reverse Charge VAT or CIS are applied. The ‘Invoiced Gross’ comes from the sum total of the VAT applied to all of the Invoices. The ‘To Invoice’ amount is driven by the Net value of the Contract. Please note that we no longer have an amount ‘To be Invoiced, Gross’. The following screenshot shows the Invoice form with automatically populated fields after being related to a CI.In line with the new theme within the Ops Dashboard and Reports you will notice that we have changed the display of the Invoice headlines tables letting you know what the Job Value Net, Invoiced Net, To Invoice Net, Invoiced Gross, Paid and Outstanding amounts for the customer.

The useful life or rate field (depending on the depreciation method) is taken from the product related to the CI. If the invoice is related to a CI with a known start date, that date is used as a default for both the invoice date and the depreciation start date (both fields are still editable). If a supplier is known, the supplier field is also automatically filled in. The name of the invoice is suggested based on the name of the related change, project, SLA, FLSA, contract or CI. To make it easier for financial managers to create invoices, logic has been added to automatically populate some of the invoice fields. The depreciation end date is determined automatically based on the useful life of the related CI. The depreciation start date is by default set to the invoice date but can be adjusted manually if needed for any of the four available depreciation methods. For the depreciation of CIs, the financial manager can now also choose a depreciation start date. With last week’s enhancements regarding invoices for configuration items, the possibility for amortization of invoices that are not related to CIs was introduced, with an amortization start date and an end date. As service cost tracking is becoming one of the central pillars of 4me, several more adjustments have been made to the Invoice form.
