What it does for you
Reverse charge without thinking about it
If you work as a subcontractor for a main contractor, you shift the VAT. The invoice then has to say “btw verlegd” plus your client’s VAT number, and it must not show a VAT amount.
You set the invoice to reverse charge once and the mandatory wording is added automatically, with the client’s VAT number alongside it. No template to adjust per job, and no invoice bouncing back because the wording was missing.
Instalments are agreed in the quote
On a job of any size you do not invoice in one go. You put the split straight into the quote: 30% on order, 40% at the start and 30% on delivery, for instance. Your client sees that split, and therefore agrees to it at the moment they sign.
The split can be in percentages or per line, whichever suits the job. The amounts add up exactly to the quote total: the last instalment absorbs the remainder, so nothing is ever left floating.
The instalment invoices go out by themselves
Once your client accepts, the instalments are queued. On the agreed date factuurmaken creates the instalment invoice, with the next invoice number and a reference back to the quote. You do not have to track what you have already sent.
In focus: the deposit
The deposit is the difference between a job you pre-finance and a job that pays for itself. The hard part is not the amount but the timing: you want it invoiced before you buy materials, not two weeks later because it slipped.
By agreeing the instalments in the quote, the first invoice is ready the moment the job is confirmed. That saves a conversation nobody enjoys having.
