Invoicing

Send an invoice reminder

Automatic reminders go out 3 days before due, on the due date, and 3, 7, and 14 days overdue. Here is how to send one by hand and how to change the wording.

Before you start

  • There is an invoice that still shows as open or unpaid.

What you’ll do

Nudge a customer about an open invoice without waiting for the next automatic reminder, and know what Zentive already sent.

Do this

  1. 1

    Open the invoice

    Financial Management → Invoicing → Unpaid or Past Due → click the row.

  2. 2

    Send the reminder

    Press Email or SMS under Send Invoice Via to resend the invoice with its pay link, or use Send invoice reminder for the reminder wording. The send is logged on the invoice.

  3. 3

    Check what went out already

    The invoice page shows email and text delivery status. Settings → Billing → Payment Reminders lists the automatic schedule; Message Center → Automated Messages → Payment reminders holds the wording.

Resend from the invoice page

When reminders stop

Reminders stop as soon as the invoice is paid, written off, or voided, and for customers who opted out of reminders in their portal. Cash and check payments must be recorded (Collect Payment) or reminders keep going.
