# How to create a Bill from Financials

A Bill can be created directly from Financials in Clinicea. This option is particularly useful if your Clinic has a separate counter for Billing or if you have an accounts department that has access to Financials only.

To create a Bill from Financials:

**1.** Go to **New Bill** | **Search** or **Select Patient** and click to open.

**2.** A **New Bill** window will open | **+Add Bill Items |** click on Inventory to Bill a product or click on Services to Bill a service | Click the **+Button** beside the name of the product or service.

**3.** If need be, while billing you can also offer discounts to your client and that can be done very simply using Clinicea.In the **New Bill** section type, a Discount percentage in the **Box** named **Discount** and the total price of the item gets discounted by the given percentage.

Alternatively, if you want to Discount the item price by a specific amount, click on the % icon.
