    Keep issuing, sending, charging, and payment decisions with an authorized person after the draft is reviewed.

The handoff

A draft invoice record with the submitted billing details, ready for a person to verify before issuing it or taking any payment-related action.

Keep in mind

Check customer details, amounts, and invoice terms against the original submission. Creating a record does not issue an invoice, collect payment, or authorize a transfer; a person must review and approve any financial action.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Define form fields and billing categories

Choose the customer and service details needed for an invoice and the request types the form can accept.

Prepare the invoice register

Set the fields and status used to identify draft records, missing details, and records awaiting review.

Assign an authorized billing reviewer

Name the person who checks each invoice draft and approves any action to issue or collect payment.

Test incomplete and unusual submissions

Check missing customer details, unsupported request types, and amounts that need clarification before relying on the process.

Keep exploring

Review customer invoices before sending

Prepare a customer record and invoice from supplied details, then require an authorized person to approve the exact invoice before it is issued or sent.
