# Getting Started

## Activate Billing Features

First, let's begin by activating Billing features in our StayOnHire account on the [Settings > Billing](https://app.stayonhire.com/org/billing/) page. 

Click the 'Activate' button:

Your page will now begin showing billing-related settings. We'll cover how each of these settings work in the following guide: [Configure & Setup Billing](/billing/invoicing/getting-started/configure-and-setup.md)&#x20;

## Billing Visibility

Once activated, you will see a feature titled "Billing" will become visible in your main menu on the left hand side. This page can be viewed in a 'Calendar' or 'Table' view, depending on your preferences.

Jobs will also begin displaying a new Billing tab, that will list all billable items and invoices linked to a job:
