An invoice is a financial document that a field service business issues to its clients to request payment for services provided. It details the work completed, parts used, labor costs, and any applicable taxes or discounts. Invoices help track revenue, manage payments, and maintain clear financial records between your business and customers.

  1. Fill in the mandatory fields in the Invoice Details section:
    1. Invoice Date
    2. Payment Term
    3. Due Date
    4. Invoice Template
  2. Click ”+ Add” in the Parts & Services section and select an option to add parts, products, or services to the invoice, such as Line Item, Bundle, Section, Item Group, or Custom Line Item.
Note: When you add a non-billable item directly to an invoice, the cost of that item will be included in the total. This ensures that non-billable items are tracked when manually added to the invoice. However, if you include a non-billable item in a transaction (such as a job or contract) and later convert that document into an invoice, the non-billable item will not appear on the invoice. This is because non-billable items are excluded from the billable total.
After adding parts, products, and services, you can edit or update the Markup value and its discount by following these steps:
  • Locate the line item in the list of added parts, products, or services.
  • Click the icon next to the item you want to update. Invoice20 Pn

Handle zero-amount invoices

A zero-amount invoice, such as one created for a warranty visit or a fully discounted job, does not automatically move to Paid status. On the web app, payment may need to be recorded manually even when the amount due is $0. On the mobile app, use Mark as Paid to close a zero-amount invoice without recording a payment transaction. Collect Payment is not available for zero-amount invoices in Android v4.1.27 and the equivalent iOS version onward.
