CIS

Question asked by Colin Smith 10 years ago

How do I edit the CIS amount to relate to labour cost and also show a breakdown of labour and material on an invoice

Hi Colin,

The CIS feature in Clear Books needs to be turned on at Settings > Organisation > Toggle Features. Once enabled, it will give you access to the following CIS account codes to use on your sales invoices.

When creating your invoice, create one line with the code "CIS labour revenue", and one line with the code "Materials revenue".

We have more detailed support material in this help guide.

Hopefully this answers your question, if not please feel free to reply and I'll get back to you.

Grrr...that bottom box in my screenshot should show 'materials revenue' not labour revenue (can't edit the post).

Hopefully our replies crossed Colin as my example should cover it.

Hello Adrian, Thanks for the reply, its clear but I dont think I was when asking my question! My invoices are lines of works carried out ie: 20no. 2 gang sockets installed £1,000.00 and so on. I need to be able to edit the CIS amount manually to the split of labour & material then (perhaps in a comments line breakdown the total material/labour costs ie: Materials = £250.00 & Amount Liable for CIS = £750.00 Then a CIS deduction of £150 (20% of the £750.00)

You can see the CIS is then only applied against the net labour costs.

Your invoice would then look something like this Colin:
