What a receipt should include
A professional receipt should clearly show:
- Business name and contact details
- Receipt number and date
- Name of the person or business that paid
- Items or services paid for
- Amount paid
- Payment method
- VAT (if applicable)
- A signature or stamp
When to use a receipt

- For your business records and bookkeeping

Receipt vs invoice
An invoice requests payment; a receipt confirms that payment has been made. Many businesses send an invoice first, then issue a receipt once the client pays — jmDoc has free tools for both.
Why receipts matter
- They are proof of payment for your customer
- They keep your bookkeeping accurate
- They build trust and reduce payment disputes
