Benefits of LEDES Invoice Submission

• You can submit multiple invoices in one LEDES upload.
• There's less manual input during submission.

How do I create a LEDES file?

LEDES files are typically created through a 3rd party tool known as a LEDES generator. The LEDES generator links up to your company’s timekeeping database, meaning you can create a file at the click of a button. Some of the providers that offer this functionality are:

• eBilling Hub
• Thomson Reuters Elite
• BillBlast
• Clio
