Overview
- Use a contact group when you add an invoice to save time and reduce data entry.
- Contact groups allow you to create multiple invoices at the same time.
How it works
If you send a number of customers the same or similar invoices, you can save time by using contact groups. Once you've added customers to a contact group, you can invoice them all at once instead of individually. Doing this allows you to:
- Create a draft template invoice that applies to all the contacts
- Edit the draft invoice for each contact if necessary
- Submit or approve the draft invoices all in one go
Invoice a contact group
- In the Business menu, select Invoices.
- Click the arrow next to New Invoice, then select the contact group you want to invoice.
- Enter details in the invoice fields.
- Click Create draft invoices.
From the Draft tab, you can then:
- Edit any invoice that needs adjusting
- Approve the invoices
- Submit the invoices for approval
- Email the invoices to your customers
