FAQ
Common questions
Practical answers for creating and downloading invoices with TradeMadeSimple.
Is a quote the same as an invoice?
No. A quote is usually sent before work is approved, while an invoice requests payment after work is complete or after an agreed stage.
Can I turn this quote into an invoice later?
Yes. Keep the same line items, update the dates and payment terms, then download the finished invoice PDF.
Do I need to create an account?
No. You can create and download an invoice PDF without registering.
Is this suitable for UK tradespeople?
Yes. The generator includes UK date formats, GBP totals, payment terms and optional VAT.
