Mixed Goods and Services Invoice
Many jobs involve both goods and services: parts plus labour, equipment plus installation, materials plus design time. A mixed invoice keeps both on one document while separating them into distinct line items — which matters because goods and services can be taxed differently.
When to use this
- When a job includes both parts/materials and labour
- When selling equipment with installation or setup
- When a project blends product supply with professional services
- When tax rules treat the goods and services portions differently
- When the client wants one invoice covering the whole job
Key fields to include
- Goods section: items, quantities, and unit prices
- Services section: descriptions, hours or fees
- Separate subtotals for goods and services
- Tax applied correctly to each section
- Job or project reference linking both parts
- Payment terms and due date
Frequently asked questions
Why separate goods and services on one invoice?
Because they may be taxed at different rates or under different rules in your jurisdiction. Separate lines keep the tax calculation correct and auditable, even on a single invoice.
Can I just list everything as one lump sum?
You can, but it creates problems: harder tax reporting, harder client cost tracking, and harder warranty claims on the goods portion. Itemising takes little extra effort and avoids all three.
How do I handle a warranty on the goods portion?
Reference the goods' warranty terms on the invoice or attach them. The service portion is usually covered by your workmanship guarantee instead — keep the two distinct.
