Board contracts, extra services & billing
How this is scored
How the stable gets paid: board contracts per box and horse, extra services logged at the moment they are done, prepaid credit, recurring invoices, SEPA direct debit, VAT treatment that a tax adviser accepts, and an export to the accountant.
0 — No billing at all; services are noted somewhere and invoiced by hand in another tool.
3 — A list of services or a price table per horse, but invoices are written outside the system and nothing connects a logged service to a charge.
5 — Board contracts and extra services billed from the system: monthly invoices generated from contracts plus logged services, sent to the boarder, with payment status tracked.
8 — Services logged on the phone where they happen flow into the invoice or a prepaid balance automatically, SEPA direct debit with mandates, VAT rates configurable per service type, cancellation and credit notes, and an export to DATEV or a named accounting tool.
10 — The money side is discharged inside the system: GoBD-compliant numbering and archiving stated, e-invoices (XRechnung/ZUGFeRD) supported, prepaid credit with low-balance warnings, dunning, multiple payers per horse (shares, Reitbeteiligung) split correctly, and every charge traceable to the logged service and the staff member who logged it.
The Boarder
Customisable monthly livery packages with automated recurring fees, one-click month-end invoices for the whole yard, and charges auto-logged to a horse's tab the moment staff mark the task done are all evidenced, with paid/unpaid status on a central dashboard and a monthly hand-off to Xero or QuickBooks. I found no public information on SEPA direct debit with mandates, VAT treatment per service type, credit notes, or splitting a horse's bill between multiple payers. 7 2 3
