Common cleaning invoice mistakes
Sending a single total with no service details.
Break out recurring service, one-time add-ons, supplies, discounts, and taxes so the client can approve the charge quickly.
Using the same terms for every customer.
Use due-on-receipt for many residential jobs and written Net terms for commercial or recurring accounts.
Leaving recurring service dates vague.
Add the billing period so the invoice matches the contract, calendar, and client accounting records.
