Creating Multi-Matter Invoices

One invoice can be created with line items that bill for more than one matter. Before continuing, however, please confirm whether your client allows multi-matter invoicing.

This article covers how to add line items that invoice for more than one matter on non-LEDES invoices or LEDES invoices. For general instructions on how to create invoices, refer to the following articles:

• Creating & Submitting Non-LEDES Invoices
• Converting a PDF to Invoice
• Submitting LEDES Invoices

Multi-Matter Non-LEDES Invoice

Fill in the details in the first section of the new invoice and then follow these steps:

1. Select the first matter for which you are invoicing from the Select Client Matter drop-down.

2. Enter the Firm Matter ID.

3. Click + Line Item and fill in all required details.

4. Click Save and Add Another if there are additional line items for the first matter, or click Save if you are done adding line items for the selected matter.

5. Click + Add Line Items for Another Matter at the bottom of the page.

6. Repeat steps 1 through 4 above for any additional matters.

7. Review and complete the invoice and then click Save Invoice or Submit to Client.

NOTE: If you need to remove line items for a specific matter from the invoice, click Remove Matter.
