💡 Tip: Your recurring invoices can also be pushed straight to Xero or QuickBooks, keeping everything in sync 💷✨


Creating a recurring invoice

To create a recurring invoice, click ‘Invoice’ from the Quick Create menu and select the ‘Recurring’ option.


1. Set up the recurring schedule

  1. Select the customer.

  2. Choose how you’d like the customer to pay:

    • On Demand – Card, Google Pay, Apple Pay, or Pay by Bank

    • Auto Collect – Direct Debit

  3. Add line items.

  4. Set up the recurring schedule:

    • Choose how often it should repeat (e.g., weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, or yearly).

    • Define the start and end dates.

    • Set the Pay by date, i.e., how many days after the recurring invoice is created payment is due.

  5. Select delivery settings:

    • Choose whether the recurring invoice should be sent automatically or saved as a draft.

    • If saved as a draft, you’ll need to manually send the invoice each time.

  6. Click 'Next step'.


2.Manage delivery and reminders

  1. Choose the workflow:

    1. If you selected Auto Collect, the workflow will be locked.

    2. If you selected On Demand, you can specify one of your On Demand workflows configured in Settings > Workflows.

  2. Click 'Active recurrant schedule'


Editing or cancel a recurring invoice

  1. Go to the ‘Manage customers’ view.

  2. Select the customer in question.

  3. In the side drawer, open the ‘Schedules’ tab.

  4. Click on the schedule number you wish to modify.

  5. You’ll then see options to Edit or Cancel the schedule.

When editing, you can amend the invoice line items or adjust the recurring schedule itself.
