2. 2Click Create Invoice.
3. 3Choose the customer.

5. 5Set the invoice date and the due date.
6. 6Save it as a Draft while you check it.

Most invoices should not be created by hand. Recurring billing is generated from subscriptions, and one-off work is usually invoiced from the won opportunity, so the amounts follow the agreement rather than someone's memory of it. Reach for a manual invoice when there is genuinely nothing to generate it from.

With an accounting integration connected, creating the invoice here may produce a draft over there instead of a finished invoice. Invoice draft created in Fiken. Please confirm the invoice in your Fiken account to finalize amounts and send to customer. That is working as intended — the accounting system owns the number sequence and the final amounts.

Check a draft before it goes anywhere. A wrong invoice that has been sent costs a credit note and a conversation; a wrong draft costs an edit.
