Invoicing with Freckle: A Comic in 7 Steps

Amy HoyAmy Hoy

Did you know Freckle does invoicing? **Cuz Freckle absoluuuuutely does invoicing!**

All paid account levels have unlimited invoices. (Free users, all you need to do is upgrade to any paid plan to invoice your heart out!)

And we’re adding a lot more power to it, too. Wanna get the inside skinny on our customer-driven roadmap? Just keep reading…

Why tell, when you can show? Follow the bouncing pink arrow!

OMG! Invoicing! We’re not done yet, but what a start!

Now on your project pages – soon, everywhere! Mwahah!

Just click the button to start! By default, all your open (not-yet-invoiced) hours will be included, but of course you can tweak the dates! When you’re done, your invoice will be listed riiiiight here.

Configure on-the-fly! That’s right, those pink arrows are not some weird invasive species, they are options you can set — or not! — when you create your first invoice for a project.

If it’s blue, it’s for you! Everything in blue is something you can change, tweak, change, or delete. Plus, of course, the date ranges.

No accidental surprise auto-emailing here. You choose how to send your invoice to your client: print and mail? Email a link? IM a link? Skype a link? Tweet? Your choice!

Already been invoicing? No problem! Create a catch-up invoice so you can set your baseline to zero, and enjoy one-click invoices that include all your not-yet-billed time.

Thanks for reading! We hope you’ll create your first invoices soon… and let us know what you think!

## Invoicing is Going & Growing!

Thanks to your feedback, we’re focusing heavily on growing the invoicing feature. Here’s just a quick hit list of *some* of the things we’re working on related to invoicing…

* expense tracking / line items
* marking invoices as paid, income projection
* split hourly rates (e.g. Tim charges $x, Janice charges $y)
* grouping projects by client
* recurring budgets / invoices

There’s more, but we wouldn’t want to spoil the surprise!
