Create the first invoice from a contract

Step-by-step task guide: Invoicing and dunning.

You upload a contract with a payment schedule in the chat. The agent reads it and creates the first instalment as an invoice draft that opens beside the chat, already filled in.

You need first:

  • The customer named in the contract exists as a contact, under the name the contract uses.
  • Under Settings > Invoice types, "Use down payment, partial and closing invoices" is switched on. Otherwise the agent asks.

Step 1: Open the chat. Click "New chat" on the left. The chat with the AI agent opens. The agent chat

Step 2: Attach the contract and ask. Click the plus, choose the contract as a PDF and write what you want, for example "Read the contract and create the first invoice." Contract attached, question written

Step 3: Send and wait. The agent reads the contract, finds the customer and works out the first instalment. The amounts come from the contract, never estimated by the model. The agent answers with a summary

Step 4: Check the draft. On the right is the invoice draft with customer, date, due date and the first instalment as a line. You can change any field directly and "Save". The draft beside the chat

After that: the draft has no number yet. A person with the right accepts the finalize proposal in the inbox, and only then is the invoice issued.
