Monthly billing without the 13‑tab spreadsheet
Invoicing ran on a 13-tab spreadsheet and one person’s memory. I built a system so staff enter the month’s numbers once, each client’s pricing is applied, and invoices come out ready for QuickBooks.
- Numbers entered onceThe month’s totals, typed one time
- Each client’s pricing appliedVolume pricing, flat rates, split invoices
- Invoices come out rightThe same way every month
- Ready for QuickBooksAmounts and descriptions already correct
The problem
- A billing office serving pediatric therapy practices, invoicing each client monthly under different terms.
- One spreadsheet with thirteen tabs held the client list, the rates, the discounts, and the month’s totals.
- One person knew how it all fit together. Some clients paid by volume, some a flat monthly fee, some split across invoices, and each had exceptions.
What it does
- The month runs on entry and review, not one person’s memory.
- What came in, what it cost, and what is still unpaid, by service.
- Everyone has their own login, so more than one person can run the month.
