When we access the "Billing and collection" tab of a customer, we will observe different concepts that we will explain briefly and simply below:
Sales and Payment
Invoices in general (tickets, invoices, credit notes) are the official documents of the provision of a service (or its cancelation); it is the only fiscally legal accounting document on which companies actually justify their income and pay their taxes.
It details the recipient of the service or product, the concepts and details of the taxes.
Receipts
