At times, law firm’s client(s) may require invoices to be submitted in an electronic format (“eBill”) rather than on paper copy or PDFs. This requirement is widely prevalent with large insurance firms who must maintain uniformity and audit controls in the type of bills they receive from their vendors (you).
Your client might instruct you to provide eBill in a specific format such that their reader software can understand. Simply providing them a PDF or Word copy of your invoice from CosmoLex will not be sufficient as eBills are an electronic file generated in a pre-defined format.
While there are many different electronic bill formats in the market, the industry-standard format is LEDES 1998B, and CosmoLex supports this format. We will add more formats as it becomes necessary.For instructions on setting up eBilling within CosmoLex, go HERE
