Use a buyer brief, quotation comparison, acceptance record and cash ledger matched to plant repotting service.
This is a planning reference for plant repotting service. The order below is an invented teaching case. It is not a completed customer job, an operating approval or a prediction of demand or earnings.
The example offer and its boundary
Fictional repotting job: assess eight identified client plants and repot only the six judged suitable under the agreed horticultural scope. Example purchase is six draining pots one appropriate size above actual roots and 20 litres of species-suitable medium; final sizes/volume follow inspection. Deliver plant-ID before/after records and care notes. Exclude large/heavy specimens, unknown toxic plants, disease treatment, pesticide use and a promise that repotting cures every yellow leaf.

An invented invoice-and-collection record
TRAINING-0760: a fictional order for the scoped offer in section 01, using 6 priced units at KSh 1,100.00 each. Buyer group: Households and offices with root-bound or unsuitable pots. No buyer was contacted and no order was completed.
Teaching invoice = 6 x KSh 1,100.00 = KSh 6,600.00. The selected input lines in section 06 total KSh 5,450.00; their difference from this assumed invoice is KSh 1,150.00 before excluded costs and tax.
For cash-timing practice only, suppose a buyer pays a 30% advance of KSh 1,980.00. The invoice balance is KSh 4,620.00. If the selected input bill is paid before the balance arrives, additional cash of KSh 3,470.00 is needed after applying the advance. The advance is counted once, not again at final collection.
