Create a write-off
Create a write-off from purchase data or an invoice line.
Updated on August 27, 2026
Completing the page reliably
Check the active company or account before entering data. Complete required fields first, then review dates, amounts, references and selections that influence later processing. Inline validation explains which value is missing or invalid; correct that field before trying again. A disabled submit button usually means that required information is incomplete, invalid or still loading.
Submit only once and wait for the confirmation or the destination page. Repeated clicks can create duplicate work when the first request is still being processed. If saving fails, keep the entered values, read the message and correct only the indicated issue. After success, verify the resulting status or record before continuing with a dependent step.
Create a record from purchase data or an available purchase-invoice line.
Enter Purchase price and a Write-off percentage from 1% to 100%. Optionally select an invoice; Billnado shows and copies its number, date, supplier, article and price where possible. Linked price and date are not freely editable.
Next enter Name, optional description, invoice date and a period of at least two years. Pro rata distributes the first year by invoice date when available.
Choose Create write-off. Billnado stores the record and generates its yearly table. Check price, percentage and period because these core values are read-only on details.
Linking an invoice line
The selection contains only purchase-invoice lines currently available for write-off. Selecting one protects derived fields from conflicting input. Clear it for fully manual purchase data. The calculated amount helps assess yearly impact; Pro rata appears only when supported.
Validation and result
Both steps must be valid. A period below two years, percentage outside 1–100 or missing core data blocks completion. A failure creates no partial record and retains input.
On success, details opens with a number while yearly rows may still generate. The source invoice is not changed.
Questions
Linked price cannot be edited; clear the invoice for manual input. Period and percentage are not editable on current details, so verify first.
