About This Automation

Invoicing after shipment requires pulling order details, matching them against purchase orders, applying tax and freight, and routing the draft for approval before it reaches the customer. Manual cross-checks and approval waits slow down cash collection and invite pricing errors.

The automated version pulls shipment and order data, checks it against purchase order terms, and prepares the invoice with tax and freight applied. Once cleared, it sends the invoice, logs it, and sets a payment reminder without manual re-entry.

Key features
Pulls shipment and order details automatically once fulfillment is confirmed
Cross-checks quantities and pricing against the purchase order before drafting
Applies tax and freight charges based on contract terms
Routes the draft for approval and holds send until cleared
Sends the finished invoice and logs it with a payment reminder
Files the final invoice copy for recordkeeping without manual saving

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Shipment Marked Fulfilledtrigger

Flags the order as fulfilled and passes the shipment record to the automation.

2. Invoice Details Pulls And Matches Order

The automation pulls SKUs, quantities, and pricing, then checks the order against the customer's purchase order.

3. Billing Admin Resolves Exception

Any pricing mismatch or invoice over $5,000 is routed to a billing administrator for a quick manual check.

4. Draft Invoice

The automation builds the invoice with matched line items, tax, and freight charges applied automatically.

5. Send Invoice

The finished invoice PDF is emailed to the customer's billing contact without waiting on a manual send.

6. Log Invoice And Reminder

The invoice, amount, and due date are logged in the AR tracker with a payment reminder set automatically.
