Deducting costs from invoice
Drs
via web
Hi,
I'm a freelance webdesigner mostly working at companies on
location. If lunch is served, I have to deduct these costs from my
invoices. But when adding a minus (-) to the fixed costs, it
doesn't substract it, but puts it between brackets. And basically
nothing happens..
Is there a way to substract costs from an invoice? It's pretty
useful for other purposes as well.
Thanks

Hello,
Putting the number in parenthesis is the way that On The Job indicates a negative value. A negative Fixed Cost value should be getting deducted from the cost of the invoice - are you finding that it is not?

Hi Dan,
I have a similar problem. I am re-invoicing my client who has made several payments on his account, and I would like those payments to be reflected in the new invoice. But when I add these payments as negative fixed-cost line items, and I would like these "payments" to be deducted after tax, rather than before. Is there a workaround to this problem?
Cheers.

Hi Jason,
There isn't at present, but I have it noted as a feature request.

Sorry for the late reply.
It now shows between ( ) but it DOES deduct the value. But in my country it is very uncommon to put negative values between ( ). My clients are confused by this. It would be nice to show it as a minus (-) in front of the value in stead of ( )
Thank you
