Invoices and Receipts for IT Services
IT services firms bill recurring support plans, project work like migrations and rollouts, hourly troubleshooting, and hardware or licences supplied to clients. Receipt Caker gives you a browser tool to itemize all of it on a professional invoice with a live preview and automatic totals. When a client pays, you build a matching receipt the same way.

Recurring plans and one-off projects together
IT billing tends to sit on two rails: the predictable monthly support plan and the variable project or break-fix work. A single client might owe their managed plan for the month plus a fee for a server migration and a couple of hours of ad hoc troubleshooting. Receipt Caker lets you set all of that out as separate lines on one invoice, so nothing gets lost and the client sees the full month at a glance.
With the live preview and automatic totals, adding a project line or an extra hour updates the total immediately, so the summary always matches the detail.
Reselling hardware and licences
When you supply equipment or software licences, those costs sit alongside your labour. Listing each item as its own line, separate from your service fees, keeps the invoice clear about what is a product and what is your time.
Because you write the descriptions and prices, you can itemize a batch of laptops, a switch, or a set of user licences precisely, which is exactly the detail a client's finance team wants to see.
Receipts and clean records
A receipt on payment gives both sides a record of what was settled, which is useful when support plans renew and projects overlap. You build it the same way, mirroring the paid invoice.
Everything renders in the browser and exports as a PNG or, on Pro, a branded PDF. Receipt Caker is a document generator; it does not monitor systems, track time automatically or collect payments, so those stay in your own tooling.
