Scheduled send

Schedule invoices to send later

Write the invoice today, send it the day the job wraps or the month turns. Line up a draft to go out on a future date and Sendinvo sends it for you at your usual send time, so you invoice on time without a reminder to yourself.

Your first 3 invoices are free to send, no card needed.

How it works

Write it now, send it then

1

Write the invoice today

Build the invoice while it’s fresh in your mind, the day you finish the work, then leave it as a draft.

2

Pick a send date

Choose a future date for it to go out, the first of the month, the day terms begin, whenever suits your client.

3

It sends on its own

On the day, Sendinvo emails it to your client at your usual send time, in your timezone, alongside your reminders.

4

You’ll know if anything’s off

If a send can’t go through, the reason is shown on the draft, so nothing fails quietly and you can send it by hand.

The details

Set it and forget it, safely

Send-later is for the invoices you want to write now but shouldn’t send yet: work finished ahead of the billing date, a client who prefers the first of the month, or a quiet moment to get admin done in advance.

Sent at your usual time

A scheduled invoice goes out on your chosen date at the same daily send time your reminders use, in your business timezone, so all your outbound email lands together. It sends on the first run at or after that time rather than to the exact minute, and only future dates can be scheduled.

Your plan is checked when it sends

The check that matters happens at send time, not when you schedule. So lining up an invoice weeks ahead never locks in an expired subscription or a used-up free allowance: if you can’t send at that moment, the invoice simply waits as a draft and tells you why.

No silent failures

If a scheduled send can’t complete, the schedule is cleared and the reason is written on the draft, so it never retries forever or disappears. You fix it and send manually, or schedule it again. For invoices you send on a repeating cadence, pair this with recurring invoices instead.

Questions

Good to know

When exactly does a scheduled invoice go out?

On the date you pick, at your usual daily send time, in your business timezone, the same time your reminders use, so all your outbound email lands together. It goes out on the first send run at or after that time, rather than to the exact minute.

Can I schedule quotes or credit notes too?

Scheduled send is for invoices. Quotes and credit notes are sent when you send them, and don’t have a send-later option.

What if my plan lapses before the invoice sends?

Your plan is checked again at the moment the invoice actually sends, so scheduling ahead never locks in an expired subscription or a used-up free allowance. If you’re not able to send at that point, the invoice waits as a draft and tells you why.

What happens if a scheduled send fails?

The schedule is cleared and the reason is shown on the draft, so it can’t retry forever or fail silently. You can fix the issue and send it manually, or schedule it again.

Invoice on time, without the reminder.

Start free, write your invoices when it suits you, and let them send on the day that suits your client.
