Do I need a business name for my first ABN invoice?
You can enter the name or trading name you use for the work. The invoice maker keeps the seller identity, ABN, customer, work, total, and payment details together.

Use one clear line item for the day rate or fixed job, or split labour, materials, travel, and call-out charges when that makes the invoice easier to understand.
