Construction billing for the accepted phase, not the estimate.

Invoicera supports outgoing customer invoices based on agreed project phases, accepted milestones, approved variations and approved time. It keeps the billable source, amount, customer terms and outgoing review connected. The construction business remains responsible for confirming physical progress, contractual acceptance and any specialist certification or customer evidence required before billing begins.

Yes. A contract can be billed against defined phase or milestone amounts when the relevant commercial condition is met. Retain the agreed percentage or amount, acceptance event and reviewer for each stage. A general progress estimate should not automatically create an invoice when the customer agreement requires a separate acceptance or approval.

No. Invoicera does not manage procurement, inventory, supplier bills, vendor approvals or payment runs. This page covers outgoing customer billing for agreed work. External costs may appear on a customer invoice only after the business has determined the billable line, customer terms and appropriate outgoing review; they do not create a purchasing function.

Keep the variation as a distinct billable source with its reason, approved amount, effective decision and reviewer. Add it to the appropriate project invoice only when the commercial change is authorised. This preserves the difference between the original contract phase and the later adjustment, making the outgoing total easier to explain and review.

No. The product supports outgoing billing operations, not specialist construction accounting, job-cost ledgers, statutory books or field controls. The established accounting platform remains responsible for the ledger. Invoicera can keep contract-stage billing inputs, outgoing approvals and receivables work connected and attributable before supported billing outputs reach the appropriate accounting boundary.

Yes, for outgoing customer billing on construction projects. An accepted estimate converts into an invoice, and from the Grow plan invoices can be triggered when an agreed phase or milestone is completed, linked to the project and reviewed through multi-step approval before they are sent. Approved variations stay on their own lines. Site management, procurement and construction accounting stay in their own systems.

Test it on one live project. Check that the accepted estimate becomes an invoice without retyping, that each phase bills only when its condition is met, that approved variations stay separate from the original contract amount, that someone reviews a changed or high-value invoice before it is sent, and that overdue balances keep the phase and variation context when the customer asks a question.
