Automated invoicing

Invoicing is a daily task for every business. Manual invoicing in Word or Excel is error-prone and time-consuming — automation in a business platform is the modern alternative.

The basics of billing

Every business needs to create, manage, edit and store invoices. Two flavours of doing it:

  • Manual invoicing
  • Automated invoicing

Both end in a finished invoice — but the journey is very different.

Manual invoicing

Most often done in Word or Excel — general-purpose tools, not invoicing tools. Invoices are written from scratch or copied from a template. Risks and downsides:

  • Error-prone — many data points (customer numbers, invoice numbers, positions, dates), pulled from multiple sources. Even a small typo can cause headaches with customers or the tax office.
  • Time-consuming — gathering data from multiple sources takes real effort. Storage and organisation get problematic at scale.

Net result: Excel chaos and number swaps.

Automated invoicing
