Ce chèque fera l'objet d'une facture
French to English
Bus/Financial
Business/Commerce (general)
Text from a contract, regarding payment for software:
"Ce chèque sera encaissé par la Société à la recette et mise en service du Logiciel et fera l'objet d'une facture envoyée par la Société au Client. "
My reading is, "This check shall be cashed by the Company upon the receipt and activation of the Software, and an invoice for the check shall be rendered by the Company to the Customer."
But I've never heard of a cashed check being invoiced! Can anyone make sense of this, or suggest an alternative for "fera l'objet d'une facture"?
Thanks in advance.

an invoice will be rendered for the amount of this cheque
If you buy e.g. software through internet, they ask you to pay either by paypal, credit card or sometimes cheque. Once received the amount they let you download the programme, and send you the invoice by mail. This is at least what I have experienced. (not with cheque, but indeed the fact they make up an invoice AFTER you have paid.

this cheque will be covered by an invoice
Cheques are usually issued in payment of an invoice, so in order for the payment to be properly accounted for, an invoice will have to be issued against it.

: Yes, the invoice is (post hoc) for the services rendered, which appear to have been paid for in advance (at least a cheque has been issued). So this is a matter of "régularisation".

OK: an invoice will be issued to cover this cheque...just turn it around, the meaning is the same...

14 hrs
and the corresponding invoice will be sent
Just trying another way of putting it.
Something went wrong...
