# Prepare a one-time family invoice

Interactive synthetic form walkthrough. Demonstrates preparation and review; no save, send, access change or payment is submitted.

Source: real components from c62c6ec1, synthetic fixtures. Computer-generated narration with captions; timing follows the spoken steps. No completed server action is represented.

## 1. Confirm the exact school and record

This uses the real app editor with synthetic training records. Check the school, family or employee before changing a field.

## 2. Choose a one-time custom charge

Open Family charge and select Custom charge for an approved entered amount. Check existing coverage first.

## 3. Enter the approved charge amount

Use the approved amount for this exact family. This demonstration prepares a $50 training fee.

## 4. Describe the charge and due date

Specify what the charge covers and the intended due date. Creating an invoice does not submit a payment.

## 5. Review before saving

Review family, amount, due date and service period. After authorized creation, verify one invoice on the ledger. This recording creates none.
