Then click on 'more options'. This will allow you to then overtype the amount. For example, if the payment was £1,000 in total, you wanted to take out £243 for childcare, then you'd change the bank payment to £243, choose childcare costs and explain transaction.
The remaining £757 will then show up on the bank section as an 'unexplained' transaction for you to explain.

You can then click 'Add Invoice Item' where you will be able to enter the quantity, days, description and day rate in the unit price.
There is then a tick box underneath that says 'Add this to your Price List' and it will remember it for next time.
If you are just adding one line, click 'Create and Finish'.
HTH.

Originally posted by Neil@Intouch View PostYes you can, when adding the invoice line, after selecting the date and client, you would change the quantity to 5, with the unit as days, then add the description i.e. 'Week ended 19/05/2017' and in the unit box at the bottom put the day rate. Final step will be to select 20% VAT, and then this can then be saved to your price list for adding this quicker next time.

Is there a way to generate a 5 day invoice i.e. 5 days @ XXX with the VAT amount etc on it ?

2. P11d - currently I fill out a questionnaire online and submit - is there a similar function in FA ?
3. Share split - I have a share split between myself and my wife - can FA deal with this when doing SA and the P11d ?
4. I don't have to give access to my business account to anyone do I ?

Our company is just moving from SJD spreadsheets to FreeAgent at the moment - we are in a 2 month parallel run to the end of company year.
They do a webinar each week for new people that you can sign up to - even if you are not signed up to FreeAgent itself.
They also provide both phone and email support before you join up - we asked quite a few questions before we moved, as well as a couple after.
So far our experience is good, it simplifies a lot of stuff that we were doing and gets them all in 1 place rather than an invoice system, payroll, and the spreadsheet. As of year end we intend to move fully across to FreeAgent. Don't think we've told our accountant yet though
