Freelancers

With the Freelancer module you can simplify billing to your external employees.

Quickly and easily check the invoices you receive from your external employees: compare them with the employee's cost statement generated by ZEP. Or even easier: create credit notes for the employee and thereby avoid invoice checking altogether.

You can store internal hourly and daily rates for external or freelance employees, even project-specific if required. ZEP generates the cost statement for each employee for the hours they have worked. The cost statement can also function as a credit note: transfer the determined amount, and the time-consuming checking of the invoice submitted by the external employee can be completely dispensed with.

Areas of application:

  • Credits to freelancers:
    Instead of receiving an invoice from an external employee and having to check it laboriously, you simply generate a credit note from ZEP and transfer the amount.

  • Quick and easy checking of invoices:

    Compare the invoice received from the external employee with the employee's cost statement in ZEP.

Can be combined with the product lines:

  • ZEP Compact with the Prices & Receipts module

  • ZEP Professional
