About This Automation

Fee invoicing for quantity surveying firms combines milestone tracking, logged time, and signed fee agreements into a client invoice. Manual handling creates delays between milestone completion and invoice delivery, and inconsistent follow-up on overdue accounts.

The automated version drafts invoices directly from project data, routes them for approval, and tracks payment status without manual monitoring. This shortens invoice turnaround and keeps receivables current with less oversight.

Key features
Detects milestone completion and triggers invoice drafting automatically
Pulls logged time and disbursements without manual export steps
Cross-checks draft invoices against the signed fee agreement for errors
Routes invoices for partner approval before sending
Monitors incoming payments and matches them to open invoices
Sends automatic reminders and escalates seriously overdue accounts

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Milestone Billing Triggertrigger

Flags when logged time and disbursements against a project cross the agreed billing threshold.

2. Fee Calculation

Pulls time, disbursements, and the signed fee agreement to calculate the exact amount due.

3. Create Draft Invoice

Builds a line itemized draft invoice from the calculated figures.

4. Partner Reviews Invoice

Invoices above $5,000 route to the partner for a quick sign off before sending.

5. Send Invoice

Approved invoices are emailed to the client's accounts payable contact PDF attached.

6. Payment Monitoring

Checks the bank feed daily and matches incoming payments to open invoices.

7. Send Overdue Reminder

Invoices unpaid seven days past due automatically trigger a reminder email to the client.
