In the spirit of continuous improvement, we wish to share with you the latest changes to our platform. This update focuses on improvements concerning some features of the invoicing process, and also bring considerable changes to the display of certain pages within the platform. 

Improvements made to some invoicing features

Invoicing is a very delicate point, and one of the key stages in the usage of the LittleBig Connection platform, for a great number of our users, whether from the perspective of a Client or a Service Provider.

That is the reason we are consistently working to ensure that this stage works seamlessly, to avoid unnecessary concerns. 

With this in mind, we have worked on the automation of for certain steps within the invoicing life cycle process for the services rendered, to make it more fluid, as well as to optimise payment for the service providers.

Adaptation of invoices for international usage

The display of invoices has now been adapted to be easier to use in an international context.  You may henceforth find a dynamic display of Tax and bank detail information, as well as other specific data, adapted to the country of billing.

Display of status of your invoices

A new improvement aimed at service providers has been brought to existence, proposing the display of the status of your invoices corresponding to the Connect offer, that will allow you to permanently follow up on these invoices.

You will now see the status of your invoice next to its reference ID, as well as some supplementary details concerning the meaning of the status.
