ServiceTrade users can create Recurring Invoices for their scheduled billings, just as they create recurring services for their scheduled service work. In conjunction with our new Invoice Opportunities feature, recurring Invoices can be used to create batches of scheduled Invoices for customers reliably. 

 

Prerequisites

This feature is available only to Enterprise subscribers.  To upgrade your ServiceTrade subscription to Enterprise, please contact sales@servicetrade.com.

 

Creating a New Recurring Invoice

  1. On the Location page, you want to create a recurring Invoice for, click to open the Recurring Invoices section.
  2. Click Add Recurring Invoice.ST-Office_Reccuring-Invoice-Add.png
  3. Choose a service contract under which this recurring Invoice will be billed, a service line to which to associate the Invoice's revenue, along with a frequency, start date, and repeat interval.
    • Each Invoice must have at least one item on it, you will need to add at least one line item to your recurring Invoice (though you can add as many items as you wish).  
    • The unit prices for your recurring Invoice items will be set based on your contract's prices, just as they are on normal Invoices.

  2. Click the Invoice Opportunities text below the Invoice button.
