# How do I create and send an invoice to a patient?

In TMH Suite, creating invoices is a quick, flexible and increasingly automated process, designed so you can manage everything in just a few simple steps.

## **Access**

 Go to **Invoicing and collections** and select the payment for which you want to generate the invoice.![](https://cdn-assets.productfruits.com/b8757060-b61a-4e95-bddf-9bc5ba488ac7)

Before going on, make sure the payment includes:

●       A **payment method**

●       A **payment status**

If any of these are missing, fill them in and click **Save changes**.  
  This will enable the **Create invoice** option.

## **Fill in the patient’s invoicing details**

Before generating the invoice, check or fill in the patient’s invoicing details. You must include:

○       Name or company name

○       Address

○       E-mail address

 **Important:**  
 If you want to send the invoice automatically by e-mail, please ensure the e-mail field is filled in.

## **Configure the invoice details**

Invoices are now much more flexible and adaptable to your professional practice. When creating them, you can customise all the information:

●       **Invoice number:** Defines the identifier and numbering.

●       **Invoice date:** By default this will be the current date, but you can change it.

●       **Description**: This is automatically filled in with the service, but you can edit it.

●       **Terms and conditions**: Adds information, if required.

●       **Invoice footers:** You can write a new one or reuse saved text.

●       **Signature**: You can add one by drawing, writing or uploading an image.

**TIP:**  You can save your terms and conditions, invoice footers and signatures to reuse them on future invoices and save time.

## **Apply taxes and calculations**

The system will automatically calculate the **subtotal**. From this sum, you can set up the taxes:

●       VAT number

## **Generate the invoice**

Once everything is ready, you can choose how to create it:

### **✔️ “Generate and send”**

\-        The invoice is saved and created as a PDF.

\-        It is automatically sent to the patient by e-mail.

### **✔️ “Generate”**

\-        The invoice is saved and created as a PDF.

\-        It is not sent to the patient.

## **🎨 Automatic customisation of your invoices**

All invoices are automatically generated as PDFs and include the information you have previously set up in your account and during the invoice creation process.

●       Your tax details (set up in **Manage account**)

●       Your brand logo (set up in **Manage account**)

●       Signature

●       Customised text (terms, conditions or invoice footer)

●       Patient invoicing details

 All of the above is applied up automatically, so you do not have to configure it every time and you can

## **⏱️ What does that mean for you?**

●       Less time spent on administrative tasks

●       Fewer manual errors

●       More convenient and professional management

●       Greater flexibility

So you can focus on what matters most, i.e. your patients.
