Quick Answer: Configure automations to notify you when estimates are approved, auto-create jobs from approved estimates, and generate invoices when jobs are completed.

The Flow

  2. Send to customer for approval
  3. Automation triggers on approval
  4. Convert to job (manual or automated)
  5. Track job through to completion
  6. Generate invoice from completed job
  7. Send and collect payment

Recommended Automations

  • Job Completed → Generate invoice
  • Invoice Sent → Follow up if unpaid

Workflow Tips
