Recording a payment

Record a manual payment against a Rebill invoice to mark it as paid. Covers EFT, cash, and partial payments, plus how to view the payment history for each invoice.

Invoice statuses explained

What each Rebill invoice status means: Draft, Sent, Partially paid, Paid, Scheduled and Cancelled, and why overdue is a flag rather than a status.

Creating and sending invoices in bulk from a CSV

Run your monthly billing from a spreadsheet: upload a CSV with one line per invoice line, review the invoices Rebill will create, create them as drafts and send the whole batch in one go.

Why does my draft invoice have no number?

Understand why Rebill draft invoices show "Draft" instead of an invoice number, and how gapless numbering keeps your invoice sequence audit-proof.

Organizing invoices with labels

Add internal labels to Rebill invoices to organize and filter your invoice list by project, type, or priority. Labels are never shown to clients.

Scheduling an invoice to send later

Schedule a Rebill invoice to send automatically at a future date. Free on all plans. Covers setting a schedule, sending early, and cancelling a scheduled send.

Removing a late fee from an invoice

Waive an automatically applied late fee on a Rebill invoice. Removes the fee line item and reduces the outstanding balance. This action cannot be undone.

Downloading and printing invoices

Download any Rebill invoice as a PDF or print a paper copy from the browser. Clients can also download their own PDF from the public invoice link without logging in.

Cancelling or deleting an invoice

Cancel a sent invoice in Rebill to keep an accounting record, or delete a draft permanently.
