Send An Invoice to a Buyer
Send Invoice
At the bottom of the Invoice, check the boxes for the payment options (Stripe Direct or Paypal) you would like to offer the Buyer.
Click the 'Send' button from the Status label or at the bottom of the form.
Invoice Email Notification and Status Change
An email will be sent to the buyer allowing them to view it online, and the Invoice Status will change to "Sent."
The "Send" button at the bottom will change to "Resend" so you can send it to your Buyer again if needed.
When the Buyer views the Invoice, the "Sent" Status will be changed to "Viewed."
NOTE: If a buyer is approved for Slope Net 60, status will automatically be marked as "PAID".
Payment prompt for Buyer
When the Buyer opens the Invoice, they will see the payment buttons at the bottom of the form.
If the user clicks "Pay Invoice", a payment prompt will appear, where they can:
- enter Credit Card number
- add notes
- specify the payment amount they wish to apply
After the Buyer clicks "Charge Card" the payment will be authorized and charged to their credit card. The payment will also be recorded on the Invoice automatically.
Re-send an Invoice to a Buyer
After an Invoice has initially been sent, the Invoice will reflect the "Sent" status. You can send the buyer an email again to link them to this invoice online by clicking "Resend" at the bottom of the form.
NOTE: StartUp plan has Invoicing feature and Business plan has Invoicing+ feature. Please check this article to know more about the difference between the two.
