Billing schedule questions

What is a payment schedule?

A plan for how a project is billed, such as a 50% deposit and two 25% milestones. Tillage creates each invoice from the schedule instead of you copying invoices by hand.

When does each invoice go out?

Each payment has a trigger: contract signing, a set number of days after signing, a date, or a milestone. The deposit is issued on signing, and later invoices are ready to send when their trigger arrives.

Can I reuse schedules?

Yes, Tillage saves schedules as templates, like 50/25/25 progress billing, and start new projects from them.

Does Tillage handle retainers?

Yes, Tillage’s recurring billing issues a retainer invoice on schedule, weekly, monthly, quarterly, every six months or yearly, and recurring revenue counts toward your forecast.
