Matter-Based Address Information

Brief Accounting allows multiple matters to be assigned to single client. The default setting assigns the main client address to all matters associated with it. This can be changed to allow invoices belonging to a single client to use unique matter-based addresses (rather then the main client address).

Setting Matter-Based Addresses

Select the Client module icon > Client tab:

Also note on the Matter Card that there is a Contact field. This can be entered if there is a unique contact for the Matter. The contact entered appears under the client name in invoices, so a "c/o" or "Attn" can be entered before the name in the Contact field:

The invoice header would appear as below with the above information entered:
