The HitPay jobs you can stop doing yourself
You stay in charge of what goes out. Flann does the reading, the drafting and the chasing.
Invoice the job on the way out
Today
You finish a job, head to the next one and promise yourself the invoice will go out tonight. Often it does not.
With Flann
“Invoice Hassan for the kitchen fit, materials plus labour, usual terms.”
Within HitPay, Flann finds Hassan, builds the invoice from the lines you described and applies your standard payment terms. It stays a draft for now.
What you stop doing: Unbilled work stops living in your head.
Knowing which bills to pay
Today
Supplier bills arrive by email, post and WhatsApp, and only some of them make it into HitPay. Due dates slip past and late fees follow.
With Flann
“List the supplier bills due before Friday in HitPay and what we have in the bank.”
Straight from HitPay, Flann lists the bills falling due, with the supplier, the amount and any that are already late, next to your current balance. You decide what to pay.
What you stop doing: Nobody has to keep due dates on a sticky note by the till.
