Simply Invoices

I just couldn’t wait for tomorrow. The doors are open. Sign up now!

The last piece of the Simply Invoices puzzle was a screencast. It weighs in at a very consumable 2.5 minutes and can be seen http://simplyinvoices.com/tour/intro.

About a month or two ago I emailed Ryan Bates of railscasts.com if he’d be interested in doing a screencast for me (for $$ of course). He agreed and the result is above. I’m really happy with how it came out. I’ve been a fan of railscasts since I first learned of it and was happy to support Ryan a little by commissioning this screencast.

Enjoy!

Simply Invoices is still set to launch next Tuesday. One of the things I just completed is the ‘tour’ page. This page shows off all the essential screens in Simply Invoices. I’ve placed a smaller version of the tour in this post. Enjoy!

1) Create a template

Invoice templates describe essentials to get started. This includes the client’s name and address, invoice number format and your hourly rate. Templates also describe what Basecamp project and person to get time entries from.

2) Create an invoice

Once your template is set, creating an invoice is a simple matter of telling Simply Invoices the start and end dates.

3) Preview and edit your invoice

Make any last minute changes to the data imported from basecamp. Everything is editable except the total hours and total price. Those fields are calculated from the data in the invoice.

4) Download the PDF

Simply Invoices can generate PDF invoices for you to send to your clients.

5) Quickly see recent invoices

View your most recent invoices in the dashboard. Easily download, edit or delete your invoices from the dashboard. Marking invoices as paid allows you to easily see what’s outstanding.
