Here is the shortest path from a blank screen to a sent invoice.
Step 1: Start a New Invoice
- Go to Invoices from the sidebar
- Click New Invoice
Step 2: Select a Client
- Search for an existing contact or click Create New Contact
- The client's name, email, and address will auto-fill on the invoice
Step 3: Add Line Items
For each item or service:
- Enter a description (e.g., "Web design, homepage")
- Set the quantity
- Enter the unit price
- The line total calculates automatically
Click Add Line Item to add more rows.
Step 4: GST Settings
- Choose GST Inclusive or GST Exclusive at the top
- GST is calculated automatically at 10%
- The invoice shows subtotal, GST amount, and total
Step 5: Set Payment Terms
- Due Date: when payment is expected
- Payment Terms: e.g., "Net 14", "Net 30", "Due on receipt"
- Footer Notes: payment instructions, thank-you message
- Internal Notes: private notes (not visible to client)
Step 6: Save and Send
- Save as Draft: save without sending
- Send Invoice: emails the invoice to your client with a link to view and pay online
Tip: You can duplicate any existing invoice to save time on repeat clients.
