Invoices

Invoices are how you bill and get paid. VertaFlow can send a Stripe-hosted payment link so clients pay by card, and it also tracks cash, check, and ACH payments you record by hand.

Open Invoices from the sidebar. Up top you get three summary pills:

  • Outstanding — the unpaid balance across overdue invoices.
  • Paid this month — total collected since the 1st.
  • Overdue — a count of overdue invoices (only shows when there are any).

Filter by status (Draft, Sent, Partial, Paid, Overdue, Void) and by due date (overdue / upcoming), or search by number, email, or notes. Overdue rows are flagged in red with the number of days late.

You can select rows (checkboxes) and use the bulk bar to Mark Paid or Delete several at once, and Export CSV for the whole list.

  1. Click New invoice — or start one from a client’s detail page, which pre-links the client.
  2. Add line items, tax, a due date, and any notes.
  3. Save. You can also reach an invoice by converting an accepted estimate (see the Estimates guide).

This is the fast way to get paid by card.

  1. On the invoice detail page, enter the client’s email.
  2. Click Get payment link (it reads Regenerate payment link if one already exists).
  3. VertaFlow creates a Stripe payment link and shows it in a highlighted panel with a Copy button. Send it to your client; when they pay, the invoice updates to paid.

For cash, check, ACH, or a card charge you took outside VertaFlow:

  1. On the invoice, expand + Record manual payment.
  2. Enter the amount (pre-filled with the remaining balance), pick a method (Cash, Check, ACH, Other, or Stripe-manual), set the received date, and add a note like a check number.
  3. Click Record payment.

The payment lands in the invoice’s Payment history, and the invoice’s paid / remaining totals and status update automatically. An invoice becomes Partial when some is paid and Paid once the balance hits zero.

Click Print / PDF to open a clean, printable version of the invoice in a new tab. Use your browser’s print dialog to save it as a PDF or send it to a printer.

  • Void marks the invoice as no longer owed (available while it’s not already paid or void).
  • Delete removes it entirely (you’ll be asked to confirm).
