- Suppose you want to generate an AR invoice once a quarter with a description like "Qtr 1 (January - March)". To do so, you would use the "Quarter" GL calendar on the recurring invoice and the following invoice description:
Qtr <Period Number> (<Period Begin Month Name> - <Period End Month Name>)
- Suppose you want to generate invoices at the end of the month to collect payments for services to be provided the following month. You want a description like "Services - July, 2015". Use the "Monthly" GL calendar and the following invoice description:
Services - <Next Period Begin Month>, <Next Period Begin Year>
