Generate T&M Invoices Directly from Sales Orders

Results makes it easier to create Time & Material (T&M) Invoices directly from Sales Orders. With the new Generate T&M Invoice from SO option, users can generate an invoice based on the actual work performed and materials used, rather than relying solely on the original Sales Order quantities.

What's New?

Generate T&M Invoice from SO – We added a new “Generate T&M Invoice from SO” option to the 3-dot menu on Sales Orders. When selected, Results reviews the actual activity data and uses it to generate the T&M Invoice. The process will:

  • Use the actual Duration from Activities to determine invoice quantities
  • Identify the SKUs used
  • Include newly added Services and Products in the T&M Invoice, based on Quantity Used.
  • Account for deleted Services and Products marked for no billing in the T&M Invoice.
  • Support both Services and Products on the same Sales Order.

New Data Tracking Columns – The T&M Invoice generation process also introduces the following columns to provide greater visibility into the source data and how the T&M Invoice was updated:

  • SO_Qty stores the original Sales Order quantity, whereas the actual Duration is loaded as the invoice quantity and applied in the relevant calculations.
  • Workflow_Status: Captures the actual Workflow Status from the corresponding Activity record.
  • Invoice_Notes: Stores messages and details identified during the review of actual activity data.

Why This Matters?

  • Invoice Based on Actual Work Generate invoices using the actual time spent and materials used, helping ensure billing more accurately reflects the work performed.
  • Reduce Manual AdjustmentsAutomatically update for modifications to Services and Products, such as additions or deletions after the initial Sales Order creation.
  • Improve Billing AccuracyUse actual Activity Duration and SKU usage to calculate invoice quantities, rather than relying solely on the original Sales Order quantities.
  • Greater VisibilityThe new Workflow_Status and Invoice_Notes fields provide additional context about the Activities and actual data used during invoice generation.
  • Streamline the Invoicing Process – Generate a T&M Invoice directly from the Sales Order, reducing the need to manually review Activities and update invoice line items.
