Electrical invoicing software
Electrical invoicing software that builds the bill from the work order. The services, the hours worked and any permit fee you fronted go on it, and customers pay from a link the same day.
A short tour of the screens this page describes. It is filmed with our demo pest control company, and every trade runs on the same screens.

Example with sample data
Service calls and project work
A service call bills when the electrician closes the work order. A panel or remodel job can take its deposit on the signed estimate and bill each stage on its own invoice as the work moves.
InvoicingBillable hours from the time log
Hours each electrician logs on the job can be added when the invoice is created, at the hourly rate set for that electrician, so time is never estimated after the fact.
Time trackingMaterials and pass-through fees
Wire, breakers and fixtures come off inventory onto the job as cost, and a permit or inspection fee you paid goes on the invoice as its own line so it is never absorbed.
Inventory and partsPayment the same day
Homeowners pay by card from the text, builders and property managers can pay by ACH, and a check is recorded when the electrician collects it.
