Invoice Mistake: Best Way Forward?

[northernladuk]

I wouldn't worry. There are plenty of posters on here with hundreds, or even thousands, of posts all basically saying that they are an idiot.

lol .. Now where do I find the smiley holding his hand up???

I agree with the others on billing two days less next month. I would actually list the 20 days worked, but then give them 2 days credit from the previous invoice, netting out to 18 days to pay.

That's the way I'd do it. No credit notes or anything.

Invoice for May:

20 days at x per day: amount A
2 days overcharged in April: (amount B)
Total: xxxxx

Have you also made the mistake in the client's time sheet system? That might need to be rectified to avoid future queries in a future audit.

Thanks all

Thank you all for the advice.

The client was happy for me to bill two days fewer for May than actually worked with no need to amend any paperwork.

Personally, I'd have said nowt.
