IP rights and evidence
IP Box
Work entries for your IP rights and review of invoice income: link an invoice to an IP right and its evidence.
Address in the app: /entrepreneurs/:entrepreneurId/ip-entries
The IP Box window collects evidence of work on IP rights and shows suggestions created automatically from invoices.
A work entry has a title, a date, an optional IP right, and links and files. Changes do not recalculate existing reports: regenerate the report afterwards.
What the window looks like

How to
Review income from an invoice
In the Automatic suggestions from invoices table click Set up IP Box on the invoice row. Choose the IP right, income kind, share and description, then Save and link to invoice.
Mark an invoice as not IP Box
Click Not covered by IP Box on the row and confirm with Confirm Non-IP income. The invoice's IP right assignments are removed; the work evidence stays.
Add an entry without an invoice
Click Add IP Box entry, fill in the form (the title is required) and choose Register entry. You can link the entry to an invoice later: Set up IP Box on the invoice row, field Work entry to link.
Add evidence to an entry
On the entry card type a URL or commit hash and click Add link, or use Attach file.
Good to know
- By default the table shows only items with the status Awaiting review / evidence. Change Review status to see all income.
Limitations
- An invoice with several IP splits shows only the Edit invoice splits link here; edit the splits in the Invoices window.
- Read-only accounts see the suggestions, filters and entries, without the edit, add and delete buttons.
