Why don't 4S stores issue invoices at the end of the month?

Here are the reasons why 4S stores do not issue invoices at the end of the month: 1. 4S stores need to settle accounts: Every company has a financial settlement deadline, and generally, 4S stores will submit the invoices for the current month to the tax authorities by the 25th. Therefore, after the 25th, they stop issuing invoices to prepare for account settlement. Consumers who come to buy a car will have to wait until the next month to get the invoice. 2. The 4S store has completed its sales target: Automobile manufacturers usually have a strict management system for 4S stores, and they assign sales targets to each dealer, conduct irregular spot checks and evaluations, and use these as the basis for rebates to the 4S stores. Therefore, when a 4S store has already met its sales target for the month, the store may not want to sell more cars, as exceeding the target could lead to an increased target for the next month. By postponing the extra sales orders to the next month and issuing the invoices then, the store can make the next month's target easier to achieve. Hence, the 4S store may require waiting until the next month to issue the invoice. 3. The monthly invoice quota has been used up: Different businesses have different invoice limits. Larger 4S stores generally have higher invoice limits, while smaller ones do not. So, once a store has used up its invoice quota for the month, it may have to wait until the next month to obtain new invoices before it can issue them.
