How This Automation Works
Subscription Renewal Date Reached → Invoice Generated and Payment Processed
Monitor Subscription Calendar
The system continuously monitors customer subscription records and identifies upcoming renewal dates based on filter replacement schedules, service agreements, and billing frequencies. A trigger activates 48 hours before the scheduled billing date to begin the invoice generation process.
Compile Invoice Data
Customer information, subscription details, filter types, quantities, pricing tiers, and applicable taxes are retrieved from integrated systems. The automation validates all data points, applies any promotional discounts or contract-specific pricing, and calculates the total amount due including any outstanding balances or credits.
Generate and Send Invoice
A professional invoice is created using predefined templates that include company branding, detailed line items, payment terms, and due dates. The invoice is automatically sent to the customer's registered email address with a secure payment link and is simultaneously logged in the accounting system.
Process Payment Transaction
The system initiates payment processing through the integrated payment gateway using the customer's stored payment method. Transaction status is monitored in real-time, with successful payments triggering immediate receipt generation and failed payments activating the retry sequence.
Update Records and Schedule Next Billing
Upon successful payment, customer records are updated with the new subscription period, payment confirmation, and transaction details. The next renewal date is automatically calculated based on the subscription interval, and reminder notifications are scheduled for 7 days and 48 hours before the next billing cycle.
How It Works
Managing filter subscription billing manually creates operational bottlenecks, payment delays, and customer service issues for water treatment businesses. This automation handles the complete subscription lifecycle—from generating invoices based on service schedules to processing payments and sending renewal reminders. The system tracks filter replacement cycles, automatically bills customers at predetermined intervals, applies appropriate pricing tiers, and updates customer records in real-time. By eliminating manual invoice creation and payment tracking, water treatment companies can focus on service delivery while maintaining consistent cash flow. The automation integrates with existing accounting systems, CRM platforms, and payment gateways to create a seamless billing experience that reduces administrative overhead by up to 75% and improves payment collection rates through timely, accurate invoicing.
The Trigger
The automation initiates when a customer's filter subscription reaches its renewal date based on their service schedule (monthly, quarterly, or annual intervals). The system monitors subscription calendars and activates 48 hours before the billing date to ensure timely invoice generation and delivery.
The Action
The system automatically creates a detailed invoice with line items for filter types, service fees, and applicable taxes, then sends it to the customer via email. Payment is processed through the integrated gateway, and upon successful transaction, the customer record is updated with the new subscription period, receipt is issued, and the next renewal date is scheduled.
