Quotes, orders and billing
From the proposal to the payment, with professional documents at every step.
Quotes
On an opportunity with products, click Create Quote: the lines are copied into a quote, which keeps them even if the deal changes later. Edit its name, expiry date and the note printed on it, then Preview PDF (in a pop-in) or Download. Move it through Draft → Sent → Accepted / Rejected.
Orders
An accepted quote becomes an order in one click. While the order is a Draft you can change quantities and discounts (0 removes a line); add the customer's PO number, billing and shipping addresses and notes. Print it as an order confirmation.
Invoices
Click Create Invoice on an order:
- the invoice is numbered per year (
INV-2026-00001); - the customer's billing identity is frozen on it, so later edits of the account do not change a sent invoice;
- tax uses the company's default rate and the due date its payment terms.
Edit a draft invoice, then Mark as sent and Record payment. The invoices list shows what is outstanding, overdue and collected.
The PDF carries your company details, the customer's, the references, the lines by group, the totals with tax and a payment box: bank, IBAN, BIC, reference and a QR code. When your currency is the euro, it is a SEPA GiroCode that pre-fills the transfer in the customer's banking app.
Factur-X (e-invoicing)
Invoice and credit note PDFs are Factur-X files: PDF/A-3b with the EN 16931 CII XML embedded, ready for the French e-invoicing reform and readable by any accounting software. They carry your SIREN/SIRET and VAT number (Setup → Company), the customer's (the account's SIREN / SIRET and VAT / Tax ID), the lines, the VAT breakdown, the due date and your IBAN. A credit note is type 381 and names the invoice it corrects.
E-invoicing platforms
From September 2026 French invoices travel through an approved platform (PA, formerly PDP). In Setup → E-invoicing, an admin connects one or more platforms, each in sandbox or production:
| Platform | What SoliCRM sends | Credentials |
|---|---|---|
| Pennylane | the Factur-X file, imported as a customer invoice; optionally transmitted by Pennylane (send_to_pa) | Company API token, scope customer_invoices:all |
| Qonto | the invoice's figures (Qonto creates the customer once, then the invoice) | organization login + secret key (+ staging token in sandbox) |
| Iopole | the Factur-X file | API client ID + secret, customer ID |
| Jefacture (Banqup API) | the Factur-X file, uploaded to your space | API address, space ID, token or OAuth client |
| Chorus Pro (public sector) | the Factur-X file, through the State's PISTE gateway | PISTE client ID + secret, Chorus Pro technical account |
| Other platform | the Factur-X file as the multipart field file (Paragon, Sage, Cegid…) | upload address, token and its header |
On an issued invoice or credit note, the E-invoicing panel has a Transmit button (the default platform is preselected). Every transmission is listed with the platform's status — sent, processing, delivered, accepted, rejected, paid — and refreshed every 30 minutes, or at once with Refresh. Credentials are encrypted at rest. Start in sandbox: each platform validates the file and your company identifiers before going live.
Credit notes
To cancel all or part of an invoice, open it and click Create credit note: choose the quantity to credit on each line and give a reason. Credit notes are numbered CN-2026-00001, go Draft → Issued → Refunded, and the invoice then shows the amount credited and the balance still due.
Contracts
Contracts record the agreement with an account: start date, term, value and terms written in Markdown (headings, bold, lists). The end date is computed, and a renewal opportunity opens automatically 60 days before it. Contracts print with signature blocks.
Products and price books
The product catalog holds codes, families and list prices. Price books give other prices to some deals (partners, public sector…): choose the price book on the opportunity and its prices apply to new lines.
