Toast Invoicing: Reporting Overview

With the Toast Invoicing feature, you can send your guests an invoice for catering orders or private events. Learn more about how to send an invoice in this Support Center article: Send an Invoice to Your Guests.
 

Orders created using Toast Invoicing appear in Toast reports differently, depending on the fulfillment date and when the invoice was paid.
 

Payments, net sales, and tips will be reflected in the Sales Summary report differently, depending on when the invoice was paid and fulfilled. The same will be the case for items sold.
 

Day of payment: Paid in Total and credit card payment reported. Sales is only reported on fulfillment date. Day of fulfillment: Sales and tax will appear in net sales, tax amount, and tips calculations. Items will appear as sold in Menu reports.
 

Nothing will be reported on the day that the invoice is sent. Additionally, the payment due date is not considered in reporting. The sections below will describe where to find data based on whether the invoice was paid or fulfilled.
