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

1. Create an invoice.

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.

1. In the left sidebar menu, click payments Commerce [B12 2.0: Payments and Invoicing] > Invoices .

2. Open the Show: All dropdown.

Updating a recurring invoice series

Recurring invoice series cannot be edited directly after they are created. To make changes, use the workaround below.

5. Click Continue. The status will change to Paid.
