The Invoice Schedule enables you to create a schedule of automatically generated invoices. Invoices can be scheduled to run on a weekly, monthly or yearly basis. Weekly invoices can be created on a specific day of the week, monthly invoices can be created on a specific day of the month, and yearly invoices can be created a specific day of a specified month. Schedules can have a start and end date and be generated on different frequencies, e.g. every second week. 

These invoices can either be created as a draft invoice that you can review, amend and send to your client via email or print and post your invoice. Alternatively, you can create a final invoice that that be automatically emailed to your client.
