  2. or update totally the structure of the template. This feature needs development skills to be achieved (html, Freemarker et Mpdf).

Association with a project

Associating an invoice or a quote to a project, permits to avoid all double entry which can lead to mistakes. You can initialize all the project’s expenses from a quote and once the project is finished, you can generate the invoice directly from the project’s expenses.
