sales invoice

Transaction billing document

A sales invoice is a document issued by a seller to a buyer detailing goods or services provided, quantities, prices, and the total amount owed.

It serves as a formal request for payment and a record for accounting purposes: The company sends sales invoices within 24 hours of shipment.

Distinguished from a purchase invoice, which is the same document from the buyer's perspective.
