A fifteen (15) payment due invoice is commonly utilized by small Businesses to garner a reasonably timely payment. Naturally, any sized Company can use this invoice ranging from one-man operations to a healthy-sized corporation. The primary purpose an invoice has is to inform its Recipient that payment for his or her order from a specific Business must be remitted. The template on this page will go one step further with the language needed to inform the Recipient that the payment he or she owes must be received in fifteen days of the invoice “Date” or the calendar day when it first arrives and is seen by the Recipient. The remainder of the invoice will supply a standard structure allowing a concise report on these two Parties and the transaction between them. It should be noted that in addition to being a standard invoice, this document can also be used to seek a late payment in cases where a late fee would be inappropriate but a sense of urgency to settle a debt must be conveyed.

Step 2 – Open Your Invoice Then Introduce the Entity Sending It
The document you’ve obtained should be opened with your editing software. Once it is accessed, click onto the word “Company Name” then replace it with the Invoice Sender’s legal identity. Continue to the block of labeled lines in the upper left corner. This section of the invoice is mean to show the “Name” and contact information of the Entity Representative, Officer, or Business Owner sending this or responsible for the Client account being health with. If a Freelancer, Contractor, or Sole Proprietor is making the payment request, input his or her full “Name” on the first empty line. Three lines beneath the “Name” are labeled to accept the Invoice Sender’s formal mailing address. Use them to make a separate display of the appropriate “Street Address,” “City, State, Country” as well as the official postal or “Zip Code.”
Complete the task of identifying the Invoice Sender with the “Phone” and “E-mail” information this entity wishes used for contacting it. Two clearly-labeled blank lines have been included here for your entry.
Step 3 – Report the 15-Day Payment Deadline Filing Information
Some basic accounting information used for distinguishing this document from others is our next concern. A noticeably shaded dividing bar is set between the header and the next few sections. Use the “Invoice #” line within this object to display the invoice number assigned to the fifteen-day time limit on this payment. The generation “Date” of this document is particularly important for its purpose. Record this “Date” across the page from the invoice number.
Step 4 – Assign The Party Obligated To Meet This Payment Request
We will continue to the “Bill To” section of the current invoice. This area will require a report on who will be held responsible to pay this bill within fifteen days of receiving it. Obtain this Party’s “Name” and place it on the first line under “Bill To.” In this way, the invoice you are working on will directly address the correct Recipient. The Recipient “Street Address,” corresponding “City, State, Country,” then his or her formally designated “Zip Code” are all expected items you must generate from your records of the Client’s order or commission. Continue the “Bill To” section with the billing address required to send this to the correct Recipient or Payer.
Step 5 – Describe The Recipient Purchase That Must Be Made Within 15 Days
An invoice table has been supplied for the sole purpose of delivering a report on the 15-Day due payment. The “Description” of this payment will be a necessary report in the first box of this table and must consist of some defining items. Thus, seek out the Customer’s final order then document the work time, ordered merchandise, or manufactured items that need payment within the demanded timeframe of the invoice “Date.”
Step 6 – Inform The Recipient Party Of The Determined Pricing
The “Amount” column adjacent to the “Description” you furnished is designed to display the figures associated with the requested payment. First, deliver a price for the discussed items in the previous column. You may record each price separately or combine them in the box labeled “Amount.” Note: You should not apply any taxes that will be due. A sum of all the costs the Client must pay within the fifteen-day period is expected as the “Subtotal” report for the above charges in the next box down.
Now, the box with the “Tax/VAT” label is reserved for service, sales, and/or value-added taxes. If none apply, you are encouraged to report a dollar value of “0.00.”
After supplying the basic sum of the Customer’s order and its applicable taxes, add the two figures together, then display the result as the “Total” payment due within fifteen days.
Step 7 – Verify The 15-Day Limit’s Official Due Date
Locate the bold language “This Payment Is Due…” The absolute last calendar day before the Invoice Sender seeks further collection efforts should the invoice remain unpaid should be recorded in the space provided after this statement.
Step 8 – Additional Comments On The Deadline Or The Purchase May Be Presented
The “Comments Or Special Instructions” section on this page sets itself as an area where you may continue delivering information or additional paperwork to the invoice.

A spreadsheet can be used to issue an invoice whose payment is restricted by a 15-day deadline. Save this spreadsheet with the “Microsoft Excel (.xls)” link or the “Excel” button placed on this page for your use.
Step 2 – Use The First Column As An Area For The Sender’s Introduction
Open this sheet then upload the invoice Sender’s accepted logo or banner to the contents of cell A1 and type in this Business Entity’s “Name” in cell A2. If a Sole Proprietor, a Contractor, or a Freelancer is sending this document, then input the full Business Name this person operates under.
The “Name” of the Business Employee or the Sole Proprietor, Contractor, or Freelancer sending this paperwork with the fifteen-day deadline for payment must be submitted to cell A3. Several labels holding cell A4, cell A5, and A6 are on display – each calling for a piece of the Sender’s address to be recorded in their contents. This allows the Sender’s “Street Address” (A4) to be displayed on a different line from that of the “City, State, Country” (A5) and “Zip Code” (A6). Satisfy these cells with the address items called for.
The Invoice Sender’s email address, as well as his or her telephone number, will be the final focus of this column’s introduction. Cells A7 and A8 will readily receive this information as you furnish it to their contents.
Step 3 – Make A Report Containing The References For This Deadline
The invoice number your Business has attached to the Customer’s work or merchandise order is the next concern this invoice needs defined. You may accomplish this in cell F4 by directly entering it to this field’s contents. The “Date” when the invoice number you recorded makes the official request for payment to be submitted within fifteen days of its receipt by its Recipient is already provided for you in cell H4. It’s set as the current “Date” noted by your computer’s calendar but you may input an altogether different “Date” in this cell (if desired).
Step 4 – Attach The Payment Responsibility To One Party
The first section below the header items you completed seeks your production of the “Name” (cell A11) of the Party (Company Or Person) expected to pay within fifteen days of receiving this document. Make a record of the obligated Invoice Recipient’s “Name” in cell A11.
Address this document correctly to the right party with a further definition of his or her billing information. Cells A12 (“Street Address”) through A14 (“Zip Code”) will hold the intended Invoice Recipient’s address once you enter this information accordingly.
Step 5 – Produce A Record Of The Goods And Services Requiring Payment In Fifteen Days
The space presented in cell A187 is reserved for a basic report that documents precisely what the Customer ordered. The field in this cell will accept dates, text, and numerals so that a clear listing of the hours or producers being purchased within fifteen days.
Step 6 – List The Amounts Required To Satisfy The Payment Demand
Furnish the “Amount” needed to cover the cost(s) of the Customer’s order to the contents of cell A17. These must be dollar amounts. Verify the amount(s) owed as one numeric value in “Subtotal” (cell H18). Here, you will either verify or confirm what is owed by re-entering the “Amount” entered or you will add all amounts that were reported to each other then confirm the “Amount” entered (but as one whole number in the currency format).
The taxes owed must be recorded in cell H19. This figure will be dependent on your knowledge of the current tax codes your Business answers to. This means you must now report the sales, service, and/or value-added tax that must be added to this bill. Furnish this as requested in the “Tax/VAT” field in cell H19.
It is time for us to sum up this invoice for the Client. Add cell H18 and H19 as the “Total” (cell A20) of the invoice items and the taxes applied.
Step 7 – Specify Th 15-Day Due Date
The statement in cell A21 (“This Payment Is Due In…”) will detail, in no uncertain terms, when your Company expects payment. Determine this calendar day then enter it in place of the phrase “Insert Due Date”
