FAQs

I can't send an invoice to my contact through the communications area. Why?
Make sure you have KBL set up and that your contact has a phone number tied to it. Invoicing from the communications area of the product will not work unless both are true.

I've already worked on an invoice. Can I finish it and send it from the conversation?
No - the $ button in the business line messenger will only create new invoices pre-addressed to your contact. It will not look for draft invoices or previously created invoices to send.

What is the link that gets pasted in to my messenger?
That is the link that opens the invoice. Once your client or prospect opens that link, they will view the invoice you created and be able to easily check out from their mobile device.

Where can I view more information about my invoice after I've sent it through the business line?
You can view more about the status of your invoice from the "invoices" tab in the "sales" section of the product. You'll be able to see if the invoice was viewed and you will be notified when it gets paid!
