Send an invoice

Barkway creates invoice records from booking data so the services, prices and payment status stay tied to the appointment.

When Barkway creates an invoice

An invoice is created or refreshed when:

you save a booking or accept a portal booking request;
you make a booking change that affects the invoice; or
you regenerate the invoice.

A deposit paid before an online request is accepted is applied automatically when acceptance creates the booking invoice. The invoice shows the remaining balance; do not record that deposit again.

You can send a client either:

a public invoice link they can open in a browser; or
an invoice PDF they can download or keep for their records.

Clients can also see their own invoices through the client portal. When portal card payments are enabled, an eligible unpaid invoice offers the available deposit, full-payment or balance option. See What clients see.
