WIP to invoice

Turn tracked time and fixed fees into invoices in one pass.

Auto-charging

Send the invoice. Cards on file charge themselves.

After a client pays once, every future invoice auto-charges their saved card on the due date. No reminders, no chasing, no portal logins. New clients pay via a one-click link to a Stripe-powered payment page. Your AR ages stop creeping up.

  • Auto-charge cards on file on the due date
  • One-click pay link to a Stripe-powered page for new clients
  • Manual payment recording for cheques and bank transfers
  • Partial payments tracked accurately

Recurring invoices

Set monthly bookkeeping retainers once. The invoices run themselves.

Build the recurring invoice once with the line items, schedule, and client. Tidyflow generates and (optionally) auto-sends each cycle. Bookkeeping, payroll, monthly close, advisory retainers. Less manual billing every period.

  • Daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, or custom cadence
  • Auto-generate or auto-send each cycle
  • Edit a single instance without breaking the schedule

Aged receivables

Know exactly who owes you what, and how long it's been.

Aged receivables bucketed at current, 30, 60, and 90+ days. Group by client or service. Drill in to chase the oldest balances first, or hand the list to whoever owns AR this week. No more fishing through QuickBooks for the same answer.

  • Bucketed by 30 / 60 / 90+ days
  • Group by client, service type, or owner
  • Export to Excel for partner meetings
