Invoices and Getting Paid

1. Create an invoice, pick the job (or add one with + New), and tap + Add line item for each line. Press Enter in a rate box to add the next line. Blank quantity counts as 1.
2. Set the invoice fields:
   • Due in (days): fills from your default terms.
   • Sales tax %: applies only to lines marked Taxable.
   • Discount $: optional.
3. Add job expenses to the invoice in one tap, with optional markup.
4. Send it by text, email, or Messenger with a short pay link. Customers tap Pay Now for the payment methods you set up. Printed invoices include a scan-to-pay QR code.
5. Record payments from the invoice (deposits and partial payments work too). The balance and status update right away.

Statuses: Draft, Open, Partial, Overdue, and Paid. Overdue invoices show on the dashboard.

Best practices:

• Save a PDF of every invoice you send: open the invoice, tap Print / Save PDF, and choose Save as PDF.
• Change orders: if an invoice was already sent, make a new invoice on the same job for the extra work.
• Stripe payments don't appear in Moonlighter on their own. Record them under Payments.
