Most accounting software is built around sitting at a desk at the end of the day, reconciling what happened. Tradie work doesn't happen that way — a job gets quoted on-site, materials get used off the van, and the invoice needs to go out before you've forgotten the details. BizFlare is built to work from wherever the job actually is.
Quote On-Site, Invoice the Moment It's Done
Write up a quote on your phone before you start, and once the customer accepts and the job's finished, convert it straight to an invoice — no re-typing labour, materials or GST. Every quote and invoice carries your ABN and GST breakdown automatically, so there's nothing to fix later. See how GST invoicing in BizFlare works.
Know What's on the Van, Not Just in the Shed
If you carry materials stock — cable, fittings, parts — track it the same way as any other product. Every invoice line for a stocked item deducts it automatically, so you've got a running picture of what's actually left, not a guess based on the last time someone did a count. More on tracking materials and parts stock.
Recurring Invoices for Maintenance Contracts
Regular maintenance work — a monthly service contract, a quarterly inspection — doesn't need a fresh invoice built from scratch each time. Set up the schedule once and BizFlare generates and sends it automatically, with the same GST and ABN handling as any other invoice. See how recurring invoices for maintenance contracts work.
Know Exactly Who Still Owes You
Record each payment against its invoice as it comes in, in full or in part. BizFlare tracks paid, partial and overdue status automatically, so you know who still owes you without going through old invoices one by one. Regular clients can also check their own invoices in the customer portal.
