The new RE invoice layout permits the Contract Number, Due Date and Location Address to be grouped at a higher level.
The new layout details the calculation factor, unit price, currency and the unit of measurement to help define the value printed on the invoice, thus providing information about the charges along with the formula used to calculate (e.g. Object measurement formula will derive in the area of the object).
