Billing templates and types
Templates and types make creating a one-off charge quick and consistent: instead of typing the amount and description every time, you pick the item from the list.
- A billing type is a category (for example, Monthly Fee or Annual Fee). It groups and filters the templates.
- A billing template is an item with a price (for example, “Annual Fee 2026”). It is what goes into the Charge Items.
Create the types
Section titled “Create the types”- Open Financial management › Billing types.
- Click New Type.
- Fill in Category name (e.g. Monthly Fee).
- Save.
Use the pencil to Edit Type or the bin to Delete Type. Deleting cannot be undone.
Create the templates
Section titled “Create the templates”- Open Financial management › Billing templates.
- Click New Template.
- Fill in:
- Reference: a short code (e.g. PR001), shown before the name when picking.
- Item Name: e.g. Annual Fee 2026.
- Amount (R$).
- Default Description: the text that appears on the boleto or charge.
- Billing Type (Optional): pick a type or leave No specific type.
- Keep Active Template on so it appears in new charges.
- Save.
Each template shows as a card with an Active or Inactive badge. An inactive template disappears from the item picker in New Charge.
Use it in a charge
Section titled “Use it in a charge”When creating the charge (see One-off charges), use Filter type… to show only one type’s templates and Add item… to pick the template. The quantity multiplies the template’s amount.
