Editing Invoice Headers
The header on your invoices displays your Location name. To update it:
Navigate to your account’s Location settings.
Locate the current Location name (e.g., "Crosby").
Update the Location name to your desired text (e.g., your company name).
Save your changes. The updated Location name will now appear as the invoice header.

Click the gear icon in the top-right corner.
Select Locations.
Find the location you want to edit.
Click the edit icon for that location.
Update the phone number and save your changes. The new phone number will be reflected on your invoices.
Changing Invoice Logos
You can replace the default ShopView logo on your invoices with your own company logo:
Click your profile icon in the top-right corner.
Go to Settings.
Click the Edit icon for your company logo.

Minimizing Visual Elements in the Invoice Header
If you want to reduce the large black box area in the invoice header:
Go to Settings → Locations → Edit Location.
Delete any non-required information you don’t want to display.
Note that the Address, State/Province, City, and Phone fields are required and cannot be left blank. To minimize their visual impact, you can enter a minimal placeholder (e.g., a period ".") in these fields. This will make the header look cleaner, though some required fields will still display.
