Invoices

Create invoices. Keep unpaid balances in view.

Bill for your work, send the invoice and see how much remains unpaid.

Here’s what you can do.

Three examples show how you can use Invoices.

01

Turn your work into an invoice

Select the customer and add services, quantities and prices. Check the invoice number, due date and tax details before saving the draft.

Example invoice draft for Alex Beispiel: workshop, quantity 2, unit price €250 and subtotal €500. Not yet sent; fictional example prices.

02

Review first. Then send.

After saving, open the separate preview to check the customer view. Send the invoice by email or text. Online payment uses your configured payment options.

Example invoice delivery step before sending: Alex Beispiel, email delivery and invoice file with preview. Not yet a delivery confirmation.

See what is still owed

Paid in full or only in part? The invoice view shows recorded payments and the remaining balance, so you know which invoices still need follow-up.

Example partially paid workshop invoice: €500 total, €200 paid and €300 outstanding. Fictional example amounts; not a bank payout.

What this changes for your day-to-day work.

The practical benefits of Invoices.

Prepare invoices faster

Prepare templates for services you bill regularly. Use one for your next invoice and adjust the details.

An invoice template is reused for a new editable invoice.

Send supporting documents together

Attach a supporting document, such as a service record, to the initial invoice email. It travels with the invoice instead of in a separate message.

The initial invoice email includes an attached service record.

Spend less time chasing payment

Choose when and how often to send a reminder. Enable the schedule deliberately; it applies to invoices created afterwards.

An enabled invoice rule schedules a reminder after the due date.

Record payments received elsewhere

If payment arrived outside ONE LOOP, manually record the confirmed receipt. This updates the invoice without making another charge.

A bank transfer actually received is recorded manually against the invoice.

Send invoices without manual work

A configured workflow can create and send an invoice from your chosen template. Set its trigger, sender and channel, then test it before enabling it.

A configured process creates the invoice from a template and sends it.

What you need to get started.

Before use, we check access, sender details, required invoice fields, taxes, currency and payment provider. We test delivery and payment, and assess accounting and required e-invoice formats separately.

Invoices stay linked to the customer. Payment processing, subscriptions and accounting are separate topics: sending an invoice confirms neither payment nor a bank payout.

Availability and any add-on or usage costs are confirmed for your ONE LOOP account before implementation.

Your questions, answered.

Can customers make a partial payment?

Yes, with a supported payment connection and partial payments enabled. You set a minimum proportion; the customer can pay that amount or more. The invoice stays partially unpaid until the full balance is paid. A payment plan with fixed instalments and due dates is configured separately.

Do reminders apply to older invoices too?

No. An enabled reminder rule applies to invoices created afterwards. Earlier invoices, including overdue ones, need separate follow-up. In a manually composed message, check the amount, invoice number and due date yourself; those invoice fields are not filled in automatically.

Does every invoice need an online payment provider?

Not necessarily for a one-time invoice with manual payment recording. For example, you can record a bank transfer you have actually received. Online payments need a suitable connection and access. Recording payment is different from charging a card; confirm receipt before adding a manual entry.

Is a PDF invoice automatically a German e-invoice?

No. A plain PDF is not a structured e-invoice format. The formats, required fields and retention processes needed for your situation must be checked before use. Sending invoices is not the same as complete accounting or confirmed e-invoicing compliance. This does not replace tax advice.
