## **operation scenario** If you need to issue an invoice, this document will provide you with operating instructions. ## **prerequisite** Before the invoice application, it is necessary to complete the real\-name authentication [to go to the real-name authentication ](https://console.volcengine.com/user/authentication/), otherwise the application cannot be successful. The recharge amount cannot be directly applied for an invoice, and an invoice can only be applied after an order or bill is generated based on consumption. A single order or bill cannot be split into multiple invoices, but multiple orders or bills can be combined to issue one invoice. ## **Operation process** 1) Log in to the **Volcano Engine console ** , click **Fees ** at the top of the page to enter expense center, then click **Invoice Management ** in the left navigation bar, and click **Apply for Invoices ** . ![图片](https://portal.volccdn.com/obj/volcfe/cloud-universal-doc/upload_0d04fb3e259aa36bda39cb2c0eb8a45a.png)
