How to Create and Send an Invoice in Money Pro
To create an invoice in Money Pro, go to ZenBusiness Money → Invoices → click + New Invoice / Quote, select your client, add line items with descriptions and prices, set the due date or payment terms, and click Next → Save and Send. Your client receives an email with the invoice PDF and a Pay Now link.
Step-by-Step: Create an Invoice
- Log in at app.zenbusiness.com
- Go to ZenBusiness Money → Invoices in the left navigation
- Click + New Invoice / Quote
- Select your business from the dropdown
- Click the Client field → select an existing client or click Add new client to create one
- Add line items: description, quantity, and rate/price for each service or product
- Set payment terms (Due Now, Net 10, Net 15, Net 30, Net 60, or a custom date)
- Add an optional memo (payment instructions, notes, late fee policy)
- Review the total
- Click Next → Save and Send
Your client receives an email with the invoice PDF attached and, if you have the merchant account set up, a Pay Now button for online payment.
Set Up Your Invoice Template First
Before your first invoice, personalize your template so every invoice looks professional:
- From the Invoices page, click the gear icon
- Upload your business logo
- Enter your business name, address, and phone number
- Set your default payment terms
- Add a default message (optional intro text)
- Save — these settings apply to all future invoices
Note: You cannot change the email address on invoices independently — it's tied to your ZenBusiness account email. To change that, contact support.
Adding a New Client
Directly on the invoice:
- Click the Client field → Add new client → enter the client's name, email, and billing address
From your client list:
- Gear icon → Clients → + Add → enter client details
- To delete a client: click their name → Delete Client
Invoice Statuses
Your invoice moves through these statuses automatically:
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Draft | Created but not sent |
| Unpaid | Sent, payment not yet received |
| Viewed | Client opened the invoice |
| Paid | Payment recorded |
| Overdue | Past due date, unpaid |
| Archived | Cancelled invoice |
| Refunded | Payment was returned |
Sending Payment Reminders
For overdue invoices:
1. Find the invoice in the Invoices list
2. Click Send Reminder — this sends a follow-up email to the client with the invoice attached
To configure automatic reminder timing: gear icon → Payment Reminders → Frequency Settings.
Editing Invoices
You can only edit an invoice while it's in Draft status. Once sent, an invoice is locked. If you need to correct a sent invoice, archive it and create a new one, or add a corrective line item and resend.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I create a payment link clients can pay directly?
From a Draft invoice: Next → Other Options → Save Final and Create Link → Copy Link. From a sent invoice: click Other Options → Create Link → Copy Link. Share the link by text, email, or embed it on your website.
Can I duplicate an invoice for a repeat client?
Hover over the invoice in the list → click the three-dot menu → Duplicate. Update the date and any changed details, then send.
What's the difference between Net 30 and a custom due date?
Net 30 sets the due date automatically as 30 days from the invoice date. A custom due date lets you pick a specific calendar date. Both produce the same result — they just calculate differently.
Can I add a discount to an invoice?
Add a line item with a negative amount (e.g., -$50 for "10% discount") to show the discount and adjust the total.
