− | '''Invoice designs''' are collections of settings and styling that can be shared across multiple invoice layouts. Which styling options service providers have available is controlled via Emersion.

| | | |
− | '''Invoice layouts''' give service providers the ability to control data that appears on the invoice, and some additional elements that can be customised.

− | When an invoice is to be generated, the system exports the invoice data into an XML file. There is no styling or formatting done at this point. The XML file contains only the data. The XML file then has an invoice design placed over the top. This will provide some of the customisation. Finally, an invoice layout then is used to determine the final look of the invoice before it is sent to the customer.

− | Users can have multiple designs and multiple layouts. However a customer can only be assigned a single invoice layout.

− | == Invoice Designs ==
| |
− | When a new invoice design is created, it is linked to an '''invoice design type'''.
| |
− | | |
− | The ''invoice design type'' contains what custom fields and settings are available to use in a design. Invoice design types that are made available to a service provider's account is determined by Emersion. There may be multiple invoice designs types available for users to adopt.

− | [[file: Invoice_designs_types-and-designs.png|How customisation works across designs and layouts]]
| |
− | | |
− | This diagram shows how Emersion can configure an invoice design type for a service provider. In this example:
| |
− | | |
− | * Emersion creates an ''Invoice Design Type'' and enables fields and settings the service provider wishes to use in an invoice design.
| |
− | * The service provider creates an ''Invoice Design'' and uses the fields and settings to toggle the show/hide payment settings, and upload an image to be used in a promotion.
| |
− | * With the design now configures, the service provider can then create and configure one - or multiple - invoice layouts, all of which can adopt the settings in the invoice design.
| |
− | | |
− | It is not mandatory to configure an invoice design and link your invoice layout. If there is no invoice design for a layout, the standard invoice template design will be applied.
| |
− | | |
− | The owner defines who the design creator is. Service providers can only edit designs that they create.

− | == Invoice Layouts ==
| |
− | Invoice layouts give service providers the ability to perform additional customisation on the invoice template. Ultimately it is the invoice layout that is mapped to the end-user customer. Once an end user has a default invoice template layout set, an PDF invoice can be generated for them. This PDF invoice will comprise the XML billing data, the design styling and the layout information.
