Introduction to Billing Profile

A billing profile contains the details of the receiver to be used when sending an invoice. It includes details such as the primary contact name, business address,  VAT number, and any other relevant information necessary for processing payments and managing billing-related activities. 


Each Hotel Account can have one or more Billing Profiles. 



How to Update the Billing Profile

Note: Program Admins can not edit Billing Profiles by default. To edit a billing profile, you must be a member of the Hotel Account which contains the Billing Profile, and have permissions of the Owner or Admin role.


Overview

When an invoice is generated for a Hotel Account, the receiver's details are populated from the Billing Profile.


Each Hotel Account can have one or more Billing Profiles. The Hotel Account users can create more Billing Profiles as required.

 

When an invoice is created, the default Billing Profile will be applied. The Hotel Account users can then choose to update and edit the Billing Profile of an invoice if needed. 


Billing Profiles can be updated by Hotel Account users with the Owner or Admin roles.

Tax ID: 

Certain countries require invoices to include your business tax ID (VAT, GST, etc.). Please note that the Tax ID is currently being pre-configured by our implementation team due to complex validation rules. If you need to update it, you can contact us.

The CIF is the tax ID number that identifies a company or legal entity in Spain. Bear in mind that this CIF also stands for the VAT number (not like in many other countries in which both are separated and different).
