Automatic invoice reminders

Last updated:

Automatic invoice reminders let SortScape send follow-up messages for unpaid invoices automatically. This feature only applies to invoices created and managed in SortScape’s built-in invoicing system. It does not apply to Xero or QuickBooks Online invoices.

  • Go to Customer messaging > Invoices.
  • Turn on Send automatic invoice reminders.
  • Choose when messages should send and whether to send them by email, SMS, or both.

Invoice reminders are based on the invoice due date:

  • Reminder schedules send before the due date.
  • Follow-up schedules send after the due date. You can edit the send time, number of days before or after the due date, sender, message type, and template used for each schedule.
  • Edit the contact to turn Invoice reminders on or off for that customer.
  • Use the invoice menu to turn reminders on or off for a single invoice.
  • Edit your invoice email and SMS templates from the Notification templates section.
  • Only sent, unpaid invoices can receive reminders.
  • If an invoice is marked paid, reminders stop automatically.
  • Email reminders require an email address on the contact.
  • SMS reminders require a mobile number on the contact.
  • SMS messages are only sent between 7:00am and 9:30pm.
