Order to proforma to final invoice

Tidal carries the approved order straight into a proforma invoice and then the final invoice, using the same coded, priced lines, so the invoice matches the quote and nothing is re-keyed. Currency, terms and agency details are held per account.

Reconciled against delivery, not guesswork

Short deliveries and substitutions are where margin quietly leaks. Tidal reconciles the invoice against the delivery note and the order, flags the differences, and adjusts before the invoice goes out, so you bill for what you delivered and your costs match your revenue.
