Template List

Click Recurring Invoices in the sidebar to see all your templates. Each entry shows:

  • Template name and customer
  • Frequency (e.g., Monthly)
  • Whether it’s enabled or disabled
  • Next scheduled generation date
  • Number of invoices generated so far

Template Detail Page

Click any template to view its details. From here you can:

Edit the Template

Update any field — name, customer, schedule, line items, tax rate, notes, terms, or auto-send setting. Changes apply to the next generated invoice.

Enable or Disable

Toggle the Enabled switch to start or stop automatic generation. Disabling a template does not affect previously generated invoices.

View Generated Invoices

The detail page lists all invoices that have been generated from this template. Click any invoice to view it.

Track Generation

  • Last Generated — when the most recent invoice was created
  • Next Scheduled — when the next invoice will be generated
  • Total Generated — how many invoices have been created from this template

Delete the Template

Click Delete to permanently remove the template. Previously generated invoices are not affected.

How Generation Works

A daily background job checks for templates that are due. When a template’s next scheduled date has arrived:

  1. A new invoice is created with the template’s line items, tax rate, notes, and terms.
  2. The invoice dates are set to the current period.
  3. If auto-send is on, the invoice is emailed to the customer.
  4. The template’s next scheduled date advances to the next period.

Tips

  • Check the Next Scheduled date to verify your template is set up correctly.
  • If auto-send is on but an invoice wasn’t emailed, check that the customer has an email address and hasn’t unsubscribed.
  • You can create multiple templates for the same customer if they have different billing schedules.
