How This Automation Works
Service Job Completion → Professional Invoice Delivered
Service Completion Trigger
When your technician marks a chimney service job as complete in your field service management system, the automation instantly captures all job data including service type, start and end times, materials used, customer information, and any special notes or observations from the field.
Data Validation and Pricing Calculation
The system automatically validates all captured information, applies the appropriate pricing structure based on service type and duration, calculates material costs from inventory records, adds any applicable surcharges or discounts, computes taxes based on location, and generates the final invoice total with complete itemization.
Invoice Generation and Formatting
A professional invoice is created using your customized template, incorporating your company branding, formatting all line items with clear descriptions, adding payment terms and due dates, including relevant license or certification numbers, and embedding secure payment links for multiple payment methods.
Multi-Channel Delivery
The completed invoice is instantly delivered to the customer via email with PDF attachment, a copy is sent to your office manager or accounting team, the invoice is logged in your customer relationship management system, and a backup is stored in your document management system for easy retrieval.
Accounting System Synchronization
Invoice details are automatically synced to your accounting software, creating or updating customer records, recording the receivable with proper categorization, linking to the original service job for tracking, and updating your financial dashboards with real-time revenue data for accurate business insights.
Payment Tracking and Follow-up
The system monitors invoice status, tracks when customers view invoices, records partial or full payments automatically, triggers reminder emails for approaching or past due dates, and alerts your team to invoices requiring attention, ensuring consistent follow-up without manual oversight.
