How to create an invoice

You can create an invoice from the Fee Payment screen in SMART after you have logged on with your User Name and Password. How the Fee Payment screen is accessed is dependent on what you are paying for:

  1. Applications for new licences or modifications to existing licences: select the Licence Applications / Manage Licence Applications menu then select the appropriate application number. Select the [Confirm] button.
  2. Radio licence transfer: select the Manage Licences / Confirm Radio Licence Transfer menu. Select the licences(s) and then the [Confirm Transfer] button. Note – depending on the situation, there may be no fees to pay.
  3. Annual licence fee renewal: select the Manage Licences / Pay Annual Licence Fees menu. Note – it is advisable to reconcile your licences first before creating an invoice for your licence fee renewals.

 

[icon] Note.If you created an invoice before determining that there were unwanted licences, the invoice must be paid in full before any licences are cancelled - the invoice cannot be part-paid.

 

Follow these instructions to create an invoice:

 

  1. On the Fee Payment screen the default is Choose a payment option. If you require an invoice, select the Create an invoice now option.
