Light Sales FAQ
Does Light handle multi-currency invoicing for customers?

Does Light support VAT and sales tax compliance?
Yes — Revenue Recognition & Compliance includes Peppol e-invoicing, UK HMRC VAT filing, and US sales tax via AvaTax alongside release-based revenue recognition, reflecting Light's European multi-country origins.
Does Light have a CRM-style API for managing customer contracts?
Yes — a Contracts API allows programmatic management of customer subscription contracts, including line items and lifecycle state transitions, for companies wanting to integrate contract creation with other systems rather than using the UI alone.
Is Light's CRM capability a sales pipeline tool?
No — Light's CRM-adjacent capability is rated basic and centers on customer billing records, contracts, and AR rather than lead or opportunity tracking. Sales pipeline management needs a dedicated CRM alongside Light.
