Invoice requests

An invoice request is a way to get a customer's confirmation before sending them a final invoice. Instead of just sending the bill, you send the invoice for review first — the customer can approve or decline it.

This is especially useful when billing amounts may vary or when a customer needs to confirm the order details before payment.

How invoice requests work

  1. You generate the invoice as usual
  2. Instead of sending it directly, you send an invoice request by email
  3. The customer receives the email and reviews the invoice
  4. They click to approve or decline
  5. If approved, the invoice becomes final and you can proceed with payment

Viewing invoice requests

Go to Invoice requests in the main menu. You see a list of all pending and processed requests.

StatusMeaning
PendingRequest created but not yet sent

ApprovedCustomer has accepted the invoice
DeclinedCustomer has raised an objection

Sending a request

Open an invoice request and click Send. The customer receives an email with a link to view and respond to the invoice.

If a customer declines

If a customer declines an invoice request, contact them to understand the issue, correct the invoice if needed, and send a new request.
