From time to time you may want to create a standalone invoice for costs not related to a job or for something you missed on a previous job that has already been invoiced. You can do this easily by going to the Invoices section and clicking the "Add invoice" button.
Invoice details
The first thing you will want to do is give the invoice a name, description, select the customer who the invoice is for, specify your payment terms and choose if it is part of a contract. At this point you can also save your invoice or you can add your cost first.
Cost Items
The second selection from the menu allows you to add cost to the invoice
Select the 'Cost Items and Payment' option from the sub-menu in the left hand menu pane.
From this menu you can add as many items as you need to build up the chargeable components of your job. To add the cost items click the 'Add item' button under the Billable section to add a cost item billable to your customer. Or click the 'Add item' button under the Non Billable section to add a non-billable/expense item.
Sending Invoice
When you have finished adding your cost data and after saving, you are then ready to send your invoice. To do this select the "Send invoice" button (you can also preview using the preview button).
Send email: choose who email is sent to. Click the small plus icon on the right hand side if you want to send the invoice to more than one person or untick the email box if you do not want to send it to anyone
Add note: Add a note to the invoice that the customer can see
Add files: Add multiple files from your computer to the email that is sent with the invoice
