How to Create a Billing Receipt
Learn how to create and issue a billing receipt in Klynto — from selecting items to sending the final invoice to your customer.
How to Create a Billing Receipt
The Billing module in Klynto lets you generate receipts and invoices for your customers quickly. This guide walks you through creating your first billing receipt from start to finish.
Before You Begin
Make sure you have:
- At least one product or service added to your workspace
- A customer record created (optional, but recommended for tracking)
Step 1: Open the Billing Module
From the left sidebar, click Billing. This opens the billing dashboard where you can see all past receipts and invoices.
Step 2: Create a New Receipt
Click the New Receipt button in the top-right corner of the page. A new receipt form will open as a side panel.
Step 3: Select a Customer
In the Customer field, search for and select the customer this receipt is for. If this is a walk-in or one-off sale, you can leave the customer field empty and the receipt will be recorded as a guest sale.
Step 4: Add Line Items
Click Add Item to add products or services to the receipt:
- Search for the product by name or SKU
- Set the quantity
- The unit price will auto-fill from the product’s listed price — you can override it if needed
- Repeat for each item
Step 5: Apply Discounts (Optional)
You can apply a discount at the line-item level or as an overall discount on the receipt:
- Line-item discount — click the discount icon next to a line item and enter a percentage or fixed amount
- Overall discount — scroll to the totals section and enter a discount in the Discount field
Step 6: Review the Totals
The receipt will automatically calculate:
- Subtotal — sum of all line items before tax and discounts
- Tax — based on the tax rate configured in your workspace settings
- Discount — any applied discounts
- Total — the final amount due
Review these figures before issuing the receipt.
Step 7: Issue the Receipt
Once everything looks correct, click Issue Receipt. The receipt status will change to Issued and it will be recorded in your billing history.
You can also:
- Print the receipt using the print icon
- Download it as a PDF
- Share a link directly with your customer
Editing or Voiding a Receipt
Issued receipts can be voided if a mistake was made. Open the receipt, click the more options menu (⋯), and select Void Receipt. A voided receipt remains in your history for audit purposes but is marked as void.
Note: Voided receipts cannot be re-issued. You will need to create a new receipt if you need to re-bill the customer.
