How to create your invoice

Follow these steps to create, save and send your Sentinel invoice.

1
Save your details

Open My details and enter your personal and bank information. An SIA licence number is needed only for security shifts. Your My Details information is stored on this device only. If you clear your browser history, website data or cache, the information will disappear.

2
Add your shifts

Choose the actual date of each shift, including dates from previous weeks, then enter the venue, start and finish time. Choose Security or Steward for each shift. Choose Hourly or Fixed fee for its pay. If an hourly shift has a four hour minimum, tick that option. Your real times remain on the invoice.

3
Choose weekly or monthly

Use Weekly for normal invoices, with payment due within 14 days of Accounts receiving the invoice. It does not mean payment that Friday. Solent Business Park and AEC - Football use monthly invoices, with payment due within 30 days of receipt. Keep monthly and weekly work separate. You can also enter your own invoice number.
