Invoices can wait two days before they go out
Invoices can now be created as drafts the client never sees, sending themselves two business days later unless you send them sooner.
Until now, generating an invoice and sending it to the client happened in one motion, and nobody at the firm saw the document before the client did. The asymmetry matters: an invoice nobody has seen yet is just a document you can fix. One the client has already opened is a conversation — voiding it, reissuing it, explaining what happened.
You can now have invoices created as drafts instead of sent straight out. A draft belongs to the firm alone: the client can't see it, and it isn't on their bill or counted toward what they owe. Two business days later it sends itself, the same two days an hours adjustment gets, weekends and US holidays excluded, unless someone sends it sooner.
The setting is off until you turn it on, for every client or just the ones that warrant it. Drafts collect under Draft Invoices on the Invoices page, with the amount, who it's for, and the time after which it goes, and the Invoices tile carries a count so you don't have to go looking. One email per run lists what's waiting rather than one per invoice, and any of them can be sent early from the list or from the invoice itself.
This doesn't let a firm quietly fix hours on its own. An already-invoiced week still means voiding the invoice and asking the client to reopen it — the client's step, same as before. What a draft buys is narrower: the client never receives the wrong document in the first place.
