Pick the term on each invoice and Sendinvo works out the due date from the date it carries. On receipt, 7, 14, 30, 45, or 60 days, so a homeowner paying the day you pack up and a letting agent on 30 days end of month both get the right date. Reminders count from that date, so nothing goes out while the client is still inside their terms.
30 days of everything, free. No card needed.
The issue date opens on today, and you can move it. If a client pays from the month end, that’s the date the invoice should carry.
On receipt, or 7, 14, 30, 45, or 60 days. New invoices open on 30 days, and you change it job by job.
Sendinvo adds the term to the issue date. Move that date and the due date moves with it, so there’s no counting on a calendar.
Reminders and the overdue flag both run off the due date, so a client on 60-day terms isn’t chased on day 30.
A term is only any use if the due date matches when the client actually pays. Sendinvo counts days from the issue date, and both the date and the term are yours to set, so the due date can be made to land on whatever was agreed when you took the job on.
There’s no separate end-of-month term, and there doesn’t need to be one. When a business pays 30 days from the end of the month, the month end is the date on the invoice, and a main contractor taking applications at the month end works the same way. Pick 30 days and an invoice dated 30 April falls due 30 May. If you write it up mid-month instead, date it forward to the month end. While that date is still ahead, Send waits and you schedule it to go on the day it’s dated.
Both are there, and putting the agreed one on the invoice keeps your invoice list honest. On 60-day terms nothing is flagged overdue until the 60 days are actually up, and your reminders don’t go out while the money is still inside the client’s terms. If they then run past it, you can draft a separate late payment interest invoice on a sterling invoice.
A homeowner watching you load the van isn’t on 30 days. Pick on receipt and the due date is the issue date, and the invoice reads “On receipt” rather than repeating the date back at them. Domestic call-outs get paid on the day, which is a good part of the week for plumbers and heating engineers.
The due date is always the issue date plus the term, so the two move together. Write a job up a fortnight after you finished it and backdate the invoice, and the term still counts from the date you set, so it can already be halfway to due when you send it. Duplicate last month’s invoice and it opens on the same term, and a recurring invoice carries a term of its own, dating each invoice it sends on the day it goes.
The term sets one due date for the whole invoice. Split a long job into stage payments instead and you give each stage its own date, first fix, second fix, snagging, and each one is chased against that date rather than the invoice’s. The invoice then shows no single due date, because the payment plan printed underneath carries all of them.
There’s no separate end-of-month term, and there doesn’t need to be one. When a client pays 30 days from the end of the month, put the month end on the invoice and pick 30 days. An invoice dated 30 April falls due 30 May. If you write it up mid-month, date it forward to the month end and schedule it to send on the day it’s dated.
On receipt, or 7, 14, 30, 45, or 60 days. You pick the term on each invoice, new invoices open on 30 days, and Sendinvo works the due date out from the issue date.
Sendinvo adds the term to the issue date. Dated 30 April on 30 days, it falls due 30 May. Dated 14 March on 14 days, it falls due 28 March. Change the issue date and the due date moves with it.
Yes. Reminders and the overdue flag both count from the due date, so a client on 60-day terms isn’t chased on day 30. Set the term to what was actually agreed and the chasing lines up with it.
On the invoice, on the PDF, and on the page they open from the email. The due date prints with the rest of the details, and the top line reads as the amount due on that date. An on-receipt invoice says “On receipt” rather than repeating the invoice date.
The term is set per invoice rather than saved against the client. Duplicating an invoice keeps the term it had, and a recurring invoice keeps the term you set on it, so a client you always bill the same way isn’t set up again from scratch each month.
Put the month end on the invoice, pick 30 days, and Sendinvo works out the due date and chases the client from it.
