A lot of suggestions have been made for improving the invoicing tool, in forum discussions (ex. here and here), support requests, and in the "ideas" page. I'll be implementing a few of them in the coming weeks.

Thanks for your efforts to improve ProZ invoicing system. It is one of our essencial tools now.
My suggesion is to add an option to invoicing main page to export several invoices to PDFs in one click. The same idea of mark several invoices as paid.
Thanks very much.

Thanks for the suggestion, Ahmed. This feature has just been added.
To export multiple invoices as PDFs, select the invoices you want to export on the browse invoices page, and then click the "Export to PDF" button at the bottom of the list. They'll be downloaded in a single ZIP archive file.
Please let me know how it works for you.
Thanks,
Jason

| Suggestion : Quote Tool | Sep 17, 2013 |
Hi Jason,
I had submitted this suggestion earlier too, and I was wondering if you could share your thoughts about this.
Great work on the invoicing tool! I've been an ardent user since almost day one of its launch and loved it!
I was just wondering if it is at all possible for you to add a Quote feature within the Invoices tool.

I was just wondering if it is at all possible for you to add a Quote feature within the Invoices tool.
I can currently send quotes through Proz.com for the advertised jobs only. It would be great if I could generate quotes (like invoices) for my regular clients too, whenever I get a request for a quote.
I guess you can have this implemented easily by using the same form we use for generating invoices, but calling it Quote. If the job comes in, we can easily convert/copy the quote into invoice.
This will help us in staying organized, and remembering what we had quoted.
Many thanks in advance!
Cheers,
Nitin Goyal

I would like to see payment reminder feature works in a way that saves users time and facilitate their invoicing work.

Is it possible to enhance the Payment Reminder tool with a "Selective Payment Reminder" feature?

Hi Nitin,
Thanks for the suggestion. Others have also asked for a tool like this.
What do you use for creating quotes today? What do your quotes look like (i.e. what information do they include)? How do you track the quotes you have sent out?
Thanks,
Jason

In most cases do you send invoice reminders to the same email address to which the invoice was originally sent? (If so, it could be possible to send bulk reminders without specifying the email address again.)
