Submitting a Flat Fee Invoice or Invoice Line Item

This article covers how to add flat fee line items to LEDES invoices in CounselGO. For instructions on how to add flat fee line items for non-LEDES invoices, click here.

1. Assign the code IF to the field/column EXP/FEE/INV_ADJ_TYPE. This indicates an invoice-level adjustment on fees and, in this case, a flat fee.

2. Set LINE_ITEM_NUMBER_OF_UNITS to 1.

3. Set LINE_ITEM_UNIT_COST to the flat fee amount. This auto-calculates the amount as LINE_ITEM_UNIT_COST multiplied by LINE_ITEM_NUMBER_OF_UNITS.

4. Add a LINE_ITEM_DESCRIPTION per the client's billing requirements.

5. Upload and submit the invoice through CounselGO (click here for instructions).
