How to send an invoice on the mobile app
If your service template does not have a predefined invoice, you can add an invoice to a job by clicking the '+' to add an invoice.
You will then have the option to send the invoice by email or manually mark the invoice as Sent.
Please note: Marking an invoice as Sent will NOT send this invoice to the customer. This should be used when you would like to add the balance to the customer's account, but you do not wish to send them the invoice. This option is great when you mail a physical copy to your customer.
