Signature Tab of Invoice Template Editor

Use the Signature tab to specify margins and labels for the signature section of the invoice.

Enter margin values in inches or millimeters, depending on which one you select in the Unit of Measure field on the Misc tab. Vision displays a warning message if the line left margin and line width that you enter will cause the signature line to extend beyond the right margin of the page.

You can use the Signature Label or Date Label fields on the Signature tab for text other than the words "Signature" or "Date." For example, if you need the Project Manager and Principal to authorize the invoice, enter Authorized By: in the Date Label field. Select both Project Manager and Principal in the Project Column Selection grid on the Project Info tab, select footer in the Location column, and enter values in the margin and width fields that will position both labels as needed on the invoice.
