Service Sync Warning
If your invoice is in Draft and includes existing services that have been updated in your catalog, you’ll be prompted to refresh those services to reflect the latest pricing or details.
Sending Invoices
Click Send to deliver the invoice:
- As Email: Sends directly to the customer’s inbox
- As Link: Generates a shareable public link
You can also:
- Download PDF
- View as Client to preview the customer-facing invoice
Accepting Payments
If Stripe is enabled (under Settings > Accepting Payments), your customer can pay online. Read more about accepting payments.
Logging Manual Payments
To manually record a payment:
- Open an invoice
- Scroll to Payments and click + Payment
- Enter amount, date/time, payment method, and an optional description
- Click Add Payment
This is useful for logging cash, checks, or external card payments.
Managing Status
Invoice status is:
- Automatically updated when actions like sending or receiving payments occur
- Manually adjustable from the Status dropdown
Available statuses include:
- Draft
- Sent
- Deposit Paid
- Partially Paid
- Paid
- Overdue
- Cancelled
- Scheduled (for recurring invoices)
Recurring Invoices
Recurring invoices are ideal for scheduled, repeated billing. Setup includes:
- Frequency (weekly, monthly, custom)
- Day and interval
- Start date (required)
Recurring Rules
- The first invoice acts as the parent
- Recurring children are automatically generated and sent on their schedule date
- You can make changes to the parent invoice and choose to apply them to all existing children
- If you update a child invoice directly, changes apply only to that child
- Deleting a child affects only that one child
- You can edit the schedule, but doing so will delete and recreate all child invoices
- Limit: 100 recurring children per invoice
Invoice Comments
Comments added to an invoice are internal-only and not visible to customers. Use this area for team notes, follow-ups, or payment reminders.
