Can I bill a company client every month for a retainer?
Yes. Bill the month on account with the retainer period on the line; the invoices build up on the client's statement and ageing.
How are court fees paid for the client handled?
Use the Court fees & disbursements tab: type the amount paid and it goes on the invoice at cost, without VAT, next to the firm's own fees.
Does it keep the case number and next hearing?
Yes. Each case line carries the court, case number, opposing party and next hearing, prints them on the invoice and keeps the matter on the Matters board.
Does StartERP follow National Bureau for Revenue (NBR) VAT rules?
Yes. Invoices show your VAT account number, VAT at 10% and totals in Bahraini Dinars, following National Bureau for Revenue (NBR) requirements. NBR-compliant VAT invoices at 10%.
What hardware do I need?
Any PC, laptop, tablet or phone with a modern browser. USB and Bluetooth barcode scanners that type into the browser work out of the box, and receipts print on 80 mm thermal or A4 printers.
