printing an Invoice ?
In Impel, we can configure the specific print-layout of invoice that you require. This is part of the configuration that we do for you.

This is a separately priced component. Please check the Pricing page for exact prices for template configuration.

Let us say you have 3 sales people and 1 manager that need to access Impel. Then you will need 5 logins - 3 for the sales people, 1 for the manager and 1 for the Tally Sync, which could also be the ID that you use as the Administrator for Impel. Please note that the iTally utility runs under a specific user-ID and password. When the iTally sync process is running, you cannot use that same user-id and password to access other functions in Impel. The minimum number of Impel users that you need to purchase is 3 users.
