Google Drive lets you store files online. If you have a Google account, integrate it to save copies of sales invoices, credit notes, or quotes automatically when you create or change them. NOTE: You must have a Google account to access Google Drive and integrate it. If you don't have one, create a Google account. How does Google Drive integrate? After enabling integration, Google Drive creates a folder to store copies when you first create a sales invoice, credit note, or quote. NOTE: The copy created in Google Drive uses the invoice or credit number, such as SI-2 or SCN-3. Google Drive creates a new copy and sends the old one to the Bin folder when you change an invoice or credit note. Moving an invoice or credit note creates a new copy, leaving the original copy unaffected. Changes include: - Changing any details on an existing sales invoice or credit note.
- Crediting a sales credit note, which creates a copy of the credit note and a new copy of the invoice.
- Recording a payment against the sales invoice. Google Drive updates the outstanding amount and creates a new invoice, despite no visible change in the sales invoice.
- Voiding an invoice or credit note sends the corresponding copy in Google Drive to the Bin folder.
NOTE: If you convert a quote to an invoice, the original quote stays in the folder, and Google Drive creates a copy of the invoice. To access Google Drive You can access Google Drive in the following ways: - Go to https://accounts.google.com.
