Invoices are automatically created on two pages, even though the invoice only contains one order line.

This problem is usually caused by an outdated layout. The solution is to create a new standard Billit layout.

Creating a new standard layout

Step 1: Add a new layout

1. Go to Settings.
2. Open the Corporate style section.
3. Choose Invoice.
4. At the top right, click + Add.
5. Choose the standard Billit layout (latest version).

This lets you start from the most recent version of the standard layout.

Step 2: Copy over your old corporate style (if needed)

Want to keep your current design?

1. Open your old layout.
2. Copy the content of:
   • Source code
   • Style code
3. Open the new layout.
4. Paste the copied code into the corresponding fields.

Note: This way you keep your logo, colors and formatting, while benefiting from the improved structure of the new layout.

Why does this solve the problem?

The latest standard Billit layout:

• Makes sure the bottom part of the invoice is automatically pushed up.
• Avoids unnecessary white space.
• Prevents a second page from being created when it isn't needed.

Older layouts sometimes contain fixed margins or positioning that cause an unnecessary page break.

Important

• After creating the new layout, always check a sample invoice.
• If needed, test with different numbers of order lines.
• Don't forget to set the new layout as the default if you want to.

Summary

When invoices are unnecessarily printed on two pages:

• Create a new standard Billit layout via + Add
• Copy your existing style code if needed
• The latest layout prevents unnecessary page breaks
