Design Invoice Templates are useful in nearly every design industry by serving as the official documentation for a payment request. This paperwork has already been developed with a structure that enables an efficient account of the parties involved, the amount due, and some payment terms. Thus, the user will only have to tab through fields making up the areas requesting information. Once the invoice is complete a final review should be in order to ensure accuracy and completion.

1 – The Design Invoice Available On This Page
The “PDF” or “Word” invoice required to bill Design Clients by using the buttons on the preview.
2 – Identify the Designer Or Design Studio Issuing This Paperwork
Report the Design Studio’s name in place of the text “Company Name” at the top of this age. 
Input the Designer’s “Name” on the first blank line. Document the Design Studio’s mailing address to the top of the page on the lines designated with “Street Address,” “City, State, Country,” and “ZIP Code.” Submit the official telephone number of the Design Studio on the “Phone” line in this header. If the Design Studio maintains an email address for its correspondence, then it should be produced on the “E-Mail” line.
3 – Produce The Design Invoice Information
The invoice information on this page will need to be presented in an easily seen location. The invoice number the Design Studio wishes used to refer to this document should be presented on the “Invoice #” line. 
You should inform the Design Client of the precise “Date” when this document will affect his or her account. Produce this calendar “Date” accordingly on the next blank space.
4 – Direct This Invoice To The Intended Recipient
This invoice will need to make sure the Design Client is fully aware that he or she is the Recipient responsible for payment. Accomplish this task by entering his or her legal “Name” on the first line after the bold label “Bill To.” 
The Design Client should have his or her mailing address documented with his or her identity. Notice that an address area similar to that of the header has been placed here so the Design Client’s mailing address can be detailed line by line.
5 – Detail The Design Job The Client Must Pay For
The Design Client will expect some documentation as to the reason this invoice is being sent. You will need to utilize the “Description” area of the design invoice table to accomplish this. Use this area as either a place to name the service, product, contract, or work hours required by the Design Client. Be brief but give a reasonably adequate point of reference for the Design Client for the transaction being discussed. 
The adjacent column (headed with the word “Amount”) will allow entry of the costs the Design Client must cover. Furnish the dollar value of the expected payment to this box. Standard procedure requires that a “Subtotal” is delivered. This is simply the money the Design Client must pay without the taxes that may have to be applied. Enter this value even if it is the same as the “Amount” you entered above it. In some areas, the local Tax Entity will need a certain percentage of the “Subtotal” paid. Traditionally, this fee is passed along to the Customer. If this is the case, then furnish how much “Tax” must be paid in the next box. Your final task for the design invoice table is to add the “Subtotal” to the “Tax” that you expect your Client to pay. Produce the resulting sum in the box attached to the “Total” table.
6 – Give Any Additional Directions To The Design Client
Verify that all information above has been supplied accurately then direct your attention to the “Payment Is…” statement. Use this sentence to inform your Design Client how many days he or she is given as a grace period for an on time payment. This number should be placed on the blank space provided. 
Additional information relating to the information placed in the design invoice table or pertaining to the transaction being focused on can be reported to the Client using the two blank lines after the “Comments…” label.

4 – This Sheet Requires A Report On The Project Being Billed
Cell A17, titled with the “Description” label, will give you a clearly defined area where you may report on the project required by the Design Studio’s Client. This should contain information familiar to the Design Client such as the work hours, contract details, or project title. 
We will now enter the full cost of the discussed project in cell H17. This will immediately generate information to two additional cells. Cell H18 is the next cell you will need to input data.

The “[#] Days” portion of this section requires you report this number to its contents in place of the brackets. 
More material can be included if desired. To report on topics not previously covered, locate cell A22 then enter the remaining information. You may also attach a document with this information and refer to it by title in this cell.
