Solar invoicing software
Your customer reads the largest invoice of their year, so every line has to survive being read closely. Smarfle splits the equipment from the labor, credits the deposit so the balance is what is left, and offers bank transfer on the remainder.

Why generic invoicing software fails solar owners
Generic invoicing tools weren’t built for solar. Smarfle was.
Generic invoicing software
What everyone else gives you
- Equipment and labor get argued over on the largest bill a household will see
- A deposit taken months earlier is subtracted by hand at the very end
- Variable production billing means rebuilding the numbers by hand each period
Smarfle for solar
Built for your actual workflow
- Panels, inverters, racking, labor and permits each appear as their own line
- Deposits recorded against the project credit themselves, so the balance is what is left
- Generate the document with kilowatt hours as the quantity, so the arithmetic is on the page
How solar invoicing works in Smarfle
From the first touch to the closed loop. No missing pieces.
- 1
Contract and deposit recorded at signing
The agreed price and the deposit taken sit on the job from day one, so every later document is built on the same starting number.
- 2
Equipment and labor logged through the install
Panels, inverters, racking and crew hours attach to the job as the work proceeds, rather than being reconstructed from a purchase order at the end.
- 3
Invoice splits equipment from labor
Hardware and installation appear as two totals rather than one, which is the split a homeowner uses to judge whether the price was fair.
- 4
Deposit credits on the final document
The balance is what is owed today. The deposit shows as already paid rather than being subtracted in a line the customer has to find.
- 5
Financing paperwork stays attached to the job
Incentive and lender documents live on the record, so the invoice carries the numbers and not the explanations that belong elsewhere.
- 6
Payment link and ACH for the balance
A five-figure balance moves by bank transfer, so the invoice offers the route that does not cost either of you card fees.
Where solar invoicing breaks down
The friction every solar owner recognizes.
Months pass between signing and switch-on
Permitting, utility approval and an install date somebody else controls. Between the deposit and the system producing power there is a long stretch where nothing arrives.
The customer reads the largest bill of their life
A household that has never spent this much at once goes through every line. Equipment and labor presented as a single figure invites the question of what the installation was really worth.
Incentive paperwork is a second job
Rebate forms, tax credit documentation and utility applications sit alongside the actual work. None of it is billable, all of it is required, and it lives wherever the last person put it.
Deposit, incentive and balance, one page
A solar invoice is the largest document most of your customers will read this year. Equipment and labor split out, the deposit credits visibly, and the balance is the number they owe today. Keep the financing paperwork attached to the job so the invoice is not carrying explanations it was never meant to hold.

Features powering solar invoicing
Each one a deep-dive in its own right.
Equipment split from labor
Panels, inverters and racking are listed apart from the crew hours, so the largest invoice your customer reads this year reads as a list of decisions.
