Billing Layout question

Posted By FormerMember

I recently had a computer crash and have reinstalled Timeslips 2011.  My bill templates were saved and back in the template folder.  So, for some reason now, my invoices will start a new page for each new slip, making what should be a one page invoice into multiple pages, even the total goes to a new page.  I need help quickly on where I can tell my bill format or client or ??? that I do NOT want a new page for each slip.  I want invoicing for one client, multiple slips, to as few as possible pages.  It used to work fine for me.  What happened?  Help!  ASAP!

  • First, make sure you have a good backup.  Then, get to a design page for your bill(s).

     

    Click on "Section" (which will bring up a drop-down list), then click on "Configure Layout Sections...".  Now, find the section setting "Time Charges from Slips" select it (by clicking on it ONCE) then click on the "Options" button underneath the list.  From there, you should see in the Attributes sections, options for printing lines and or pages before and/or after slips.  Set appropriately.

     

    Having said all that, it could be something else causing the problem.  I just know that this is one place where such settings are kept.

     

    Good luck.

  • Sounds like your bill layout doesn't have the field to show the time spent. If you open the bill layout you should be able to see the time section. You need to go that section and add the appropriate field. If there's not a column to put it in you can right click and choose to add a column.

    If you'd like to contact me off line I can help you fix it.
