Proposals: Tailor Auto-Billing Start Times for Each Service in Your Proposals

Enhancing our recent feature, you now can set the specific start time for automatic billing for each service in your proposals, giving you even more control over your billing process.

This new level of customization ensures billing aligns with your service delivery, improving cash flow management and avoiding unexpected charges.

When drafting a proposal, simply decide if you want to bill each service upfront or at the end of the billing cycle. Then, select the start time from our intuitive 'Automatic Billing' dropdown menu, adapting effortlessly to your business rhythm.

End-of-Cycle Billing Options:

  • Starts from the Next Billing Date: Invoices are issued starting from the next scheduled billing date after the agreement becomes effective.

  • Is Paused Until Resumed: Billing is paused until you manually initiate automatic billing.

Upfront Billing Choices:

  • Starts from the Next Billing Date: Billing starts from the next scheduled date after the agreement becomes effective.

  • Starts When the Agreement Takes Effect: Immediate billing on the agreement's effective date, followed by regular invoices from the next billing cycle.

  • Is Paused Until Resumed: Billing is paused until you manually initiate automatic billing.
