Configure Invoice Extras (Config)

Overview

Click on the links below for more information

We have 7 available invoice extra options that can be used by clients. There are technically 8 total, but the first is reserved for the PO Number. The other 7 can essentially be used for anything the client wants provided their custom created extra value has the appropriate system name.

Note: BOLD's Custom Fields (Client > Jobs > specific Job > Edit EE Work > Custom Fields) are built for internal tracking and display within BOLD only. Data entered there — such as a House Code or Employee ID — does not flow into the Avionté Classic printed invoice template, regardless of the field's name. To get custom per-employee data (like an Employee ID or House Code supplied by a client) to print automatically on invoices, use the InvoiceExtra setup below instead — it's a separate, dedicated mechanism designed specifically to flow into the invoice output.

Activating a BOLD Custom Field with a name that happens to match an existing invoice-related field elsewhere in the system (for example, "House Code") can also cause a print/view error on the invoice. If invoices stop printing or viewing correctly after adding a Custom Field, try removing or renaming that field first to confirm whether a naming conflict is the cause.
