Templates are used to control what's displayed in the header across the top of your invoices, quotes and statements. This gives you a space to communicate your brand to your customers. Sales templates are also known as invoice form layouts.

For example, you can add a business logo and choose the business details you want to appear.

You can set up as many templates as you like, but if you have a favourite you can set it as the default template to use.

Before working with templates, it's a good idea to check that your business details and your customer address details are up to date—this information appears automatically on your invoices, quotes and statements.

OK, let's look at the details.
