Invoices
Invoices allow you to bill customers one-time for products and services while keeping track of payments and outstanding balances.
Invoices can be created manually or generated automatically through subscriptions and collections.

Creating an Invoice
To create a new invoice, select Create.

The invoice creation screen allows you to select a customer, add products, configure payment collection methods, and customise invoice content.

Selecting a Customer
An invoice must be linked to a customer.

You can:
- Select an existing customer
- Create a new customer directly from the invoice screen
Adding Products
Products determine what will be billed to the customer.

Products can be selected from your product catalogue and include:
- One-time products
- Recurring products
- A combination of both
Billing Behaviour
| Product Type | Billing Behaviour |
|---|---|
| One-time Product | Billed once only. |
| Recurring Product | Billed once only. A collection or subscription needs to be created for recurring collections. |
| One-time + Recurring Products | Same as above |
For more advanced recurring billing:
- Use Subscriptions for recurring card payments.
- Use Collections for recurring EFT Debit Orders, Registered Mandates (RM), and DebiCheck collections.
VAT
All product prices are entered exclusive of VAT.
When Include VAT is enabled, VAT is automatically calculated and added to the invoice total.
Invoice Due Date
The invoice due date determines when payment is expected from the customer.
Common options include:
- Due on receipt
- Due in 7 days
- Due in 14 days
- Due in 30 days
Default invoice terms can be configured under:
Payment Collection
Choose how payment should be collected.

Request Payment
Creates a standard invoice requesting payment from the customer.
The customer receives the invoice and can pay manually.
Autocharge Customer
Automatically charges a saved payment method linked to the customer.
This option is useful for customers with stored card payment methods.
Include Link to Payment Page
Enable Include link to payment page to add an online payment link to the invoice.

When enabled:
- A payment page link is added to the invoice email.
- Customers can pay online using card payment methods.
- Payment status updates automatically once payment is received.
This option is intended for card payments and online checkout payments.
Invoice Customisation
Invoices can optionally include:
- Memo
- Footer text

Default memo and footer values can be configured under:
