The Invoice Settings page
The Invoice Settings page (/settings/invoice-settings) controls how invoices look, number themselves, and communicate with patients. It's organized into five tabs: General, Paid invoice email, Outstanding invoice email, Credit note email, and Write-off email.
- How to set invoice numbering, default terms, and footer text
- Which fields you can show or hide on printed and emailed invoices
- How to edit the paid, outstanding, credit note, and write-off email templates
- How to use the placeholder-insert toolbar and the Generate with AI button in each email editor
General tab
The General tab sets the numbering format for invoices, the default terms and footer text that appear on every invoice, and toggles controlling what's shown on printed and emailed invoices.
| Setting | What it controls |
|---|---|
| Numbering format | How invoice numbers are generated and formatted. |
| Default terms | The default terms text applied to new invoices. |
| Footer text | The footer text printed or emailed on every invoice. |
| Show unit price ex-tax | Whether the printed/emailed invoice displays each line's unit price excluding tax. |
| Show patient date of birth | Whether the patient's date of birth appears on the invoice. |
| Show next appointment | Whether the patient's next appointment is shown on the invoice. |
| Show duration | Whether the duration of each billed service is shown on the invoice. |
These four display toggles are simple on/off switches — none of them depend on or reveal other fields.
Email templates: paid, outstanding, credit note, write-off
The remaining four tabs — Paid invoice email, Outstanding invoice email, Credit note email, and Write-off email — each configure the email your clinic sends for that situation. Every tab works the same way: a subject line, a body editor, and a toolbar for inserting placeholders such as patient name, invoice number, or amount due.
Open the relevant tab
Click the tab for the email you want to edit: Paid invoice email, Outstanding invoice email, Credit note email, or Write-off email.
Edit the subject and body
Update the subject line and body text in the editor.
Insert placeholders
Use the placeholder-insert toolbar to drop in dynamic values like patient name, invoice number, or balance due, rather than typing them manually.
Save
Click <strong>Save</strong> to apply the template. It's used automatically the next time that type of invoice email goes out.
