B12 Payments & Invoicing is currently only available to users located in the United States. |
Recurring invoices are sent automatically on a weekly, monthly, yearly, or custom schedule. This is useful for ongoing services, retainers, or repeat billing without needing to create a new invoice each time.
Creating a recurring invoice series
2. Under Invoice details, select Recurring.
3. Choose a due date for the first invoice using the calendar.
4. Under Repeat, customize how often the invoice repeats.
- Monthly on the first day
- Monthly on the last day
- Weekly on Friday
- Monthly on [due date for the first invoice]
- Daily
- Custom
By default, invoices repeat monthly on the first day and end after six invoices.
5. Under Ends, choose how long the series should run:
-
Never
-
After a set number of invoices
-
After a specific date
If you select After a date, adjust the additional fields to define the exact frequency and duration.
6. Click New invoice email to preview a summary of the recurring invoice series.
7. Send the invoice to start the series.
Viewing a recurring invoice series

Payments and InvoicingInvoices .

3. Edit and send the duplicated recurring invoice series.
4. Click the three-dot menu on the original series and select Mark as paid.
