Automated Finalising & Sending Invoices

Describes the process of bulk finalising and bulk sending of invoices in Synergy.

Updated this week

Edition: Enterprise

User-level: Project Manager and above


Synergy allows you to bulk finalise and send multiple draft invoices.


Filter the invoice list

To make sure you're only sending off invoices that are ready to go, you can filter the invoice list in multiple ways, and only send invoices that satisfy the rules of those filters.

When searching and filtering the invoice list, we typically recommend using the save and load filtering feature to create a 'Ready to send' filter that satisfies your processes (e.g. Invoices that are approved, in draft status, and within a date range)

When you're ready to bulk finalise and send your invoices, choose that filter, and confirm the invoices present are ready to finalise and send.


Bulk Finalise Invoices

  • Once you have the list of draft invoices ready to finalise (either through using a saved filter, or manually selecting them one at a time), use the ellipses menu and select 'Bulk Finalise Invoices'

  • You'll see the status of finalising the invoices in a pop-up at the bottom right of your screen.

  • The message updates once the invoices have been finalised.


Bulk Send Invoices

  • Once you have the list of finalised invoices ready to send (either through using a saved filter, or manually selecting them one at a time), use the ellipses menu and select 'Bulk Send Invoices'

  • You'll be asked to confirm sending the invoices.

  • You'll see the status of the send in a pop-up at the bottom right of your screen.

  • The message updates once the send has been completed.


Bulk Finalise & Send invoices

  • Once you have the list of invoices ready to finalise and send, (either through using a saved filter, or manually selecting them one at a time), use the ellipses menu and select 'Bulk Finalise and Send invoices'

  • You'll be asked to confirm finalising and sending the selected invoices.

  • You can see the status of the invoice finalise and send as a pop-up in the bottom right corner of your screen.

This action cannot be undone - once the invoices are queued, they will be finalised and sent.

In peak times, this action can take a couple of hours - but, we'll notify you once completed, so you're free to perform other tasks in Synergy while we get them out!


Checking the report

  • Once Synergy has finished finalising, sending, or finalising & and sending your invoices, you'll see an onscreen message like the one below, and will also receive a notification in the notifications centre.

  • You can click the notification to download an Excel report on the success of the process.

  • The Excel file name includes the name of the process that was used, the date and time the report was generated, and will show whether the process was a success or a fail.
    If the process is a fail, the Error Details column will display what caused the error e.g. the invoice couldn't be finalised because it wasn't in draft status.


Note:
Only one instance of 'Bulk finalise and send' can be in motion for any Organisation - where a second or more simultaneous bulk action is initiated, you'll receive an error message until the first is finished.
