Featured new feature: billing system

 

Arcadina’s new billing system is now fully active and ready to use. This feature, included for all users with the Manager plan, allows you to quickly and conveniently issue invoices directly from the Management Panel, without the need for external tools.

Having invoices integrated into the platform not only saves you time, but also gives you greater financial control and a more accurate view of yourfinancial activity, which are key aspects of professional and efficient business management.
