      Entry Level

      "For the most part, we used templated invoices when I was learning about billing and invoices, in school. I can follow any template or create custom invoices, depending on your needs. A bill for services rendered should have appropriate contact information, dates, a clear breakdown of the services rendered, total amount with tax rates, and due date with payment terms."

      Answer Example

      "Depending on the company and what they are purchasing, there might be some differences, but the preparation of a bill usually includes: service provider's details, description of service or product, the organizations name and address, taxes, appropriate dates include the invoice and the due date, and net terms. I have created thousands of invoices in my A/R career and fully understand the importance of accuracy and consistency."

      Experience

      "Depending on the company and their needs and requirements, there might be some differences, but the preparation of a bill usually includes: service provider's details, description of service or purchase, organizations name and address, the bill to name and address, tax/es, date bill was prepared and due date, net terms, payment information.

      And if there is any Expenses or abatements incurred by the service receiver less all those things and calculate service Tax and the cess for the balance amount."
