For a general overview of Portal Settings, see Portal Settings Overview.
Invoice Configuration (General tab)
Billing Email Address – Override address for all billing emails. If blank, the Portal Email Address is used instead.
Default Terms – Determine the invoice Due Date (which in turn determines when the reminders and overdue notices are sent) and can be relative to one of the following:
- Invoice Date: this is the date which the invoice is created (which can be manually changed after creation)

- Last Visit: the latest visit on the invoice
- Deposits - The deposit is ALWAYS due on the Invoice Date; the balance will be due on the Due Date
