Learn about printing and sending (e-mailing) invoices

You can print (download as PDF) your invoices and then send them in the mail or you can e-mail them directly to your clients.

You have a choice of invoice templates to use. If you plan on printing your invoices, we recommend the Invoice or Invoice Full templates because they have an enhanced layout, are in PDF format, and are designed for window envelopes. You can also customize your own invoice templates. Click here to learn more about how to customize invoice templates.

When you print a finalized invoice, you will be prompted to mark it as sent. This feature is designed to help you keep track of which invoices you have printed and mailed to clients. However, you can decline this offer and mark it as sent later. When you open an invoice, in the Additional Information tab, you will see who finalized it and when.

When you e-mail an invoice, it is automatically marked as sent and is moved to the Invoices > Finalized invoices > Sent tab. You can view the status of the e-mail in the Email Centre.

These are some scenarios to consider when printing and sending invoices:

• If your team members are drafting and finalizing their own invoices, but another team member is responsible for printing and sending invoices, they can do this in bulk.
• If you have finished bulk finalizing invoices, and you are responsible for the printing and sending, proceed to the Finalized Invoices tab.
• If you are printing individual invoices from the job area, you should regularly monitor the Finalized Invoices > Unsent tab to ensure that all invoices processed have been printed and sent.

View paid invoices

You can easily identify which invoices have been paid on the Finalized Invoices tab using the Paid column or from the Paid tab (Jobs & Billing > Invoices > Finalized Invoices tab). The Paid tab lists all invoices for which payments have been received.

An invoice is considered paid when it has a $0.00 balance and includes payments, credits, and write-offs.

The Paid column displays a check mark when an invoice has been paid and is visible on all four Finalized Invoice tabs (All, Unsent, Sent and Paid).

You can also e-mail or print invoices from the Paid tab.
