How contractor invoicing works

We have made it straightforward for contractors to create and add their invoices for payment at any time of the month.

This article covers the following topics:

• How to create and submit an invoice
• Managing invoices
• Paying out funds

How to create and submit an invoice

As a contractor, you can submit your invoices from the Invoices tab by clicking on the Create Invoice button. You will have two options:

• Upload: You will create an invoice that includes the invoice date and invoice amount. You can then submit the invoice as a PDF.
• Create:
  1. You will be prompted to choose your Withdrawal method and the invoicing currency is assigned based on your Withdrawal method.
  2. Under Billable items: 
     • You can choose to add your billable items based on your hours worked (using the Time tracking feature) 
     • You can add your invoice items manually
       
       
  3. If you have an expense that needs to be reimbursed, you can add this to your invoice.
  4. You can also create a recurring invoice that is automatically sent to your employer based on the frequency you set.

You have the option to set your desired invoice amount in your local withdrawal currency, or your employer’s billing currency. Depending on your choice, Remote will automatically convert the funds received from your employer to your local withdrawal currency. For payments processed via Wise/Remote Payments, Remote will guarantee that you receive the full invoiced amount in your local currency and protect you from currency fluctuations.

Managing invoices

You can view all the invoices you have submitted from the Invoices tab. Your invoices will be broken up into those that are one-time invoices, those that are recurring invoices created by you and those created by the Customer. Once you've submitted your invoice, if it hasn't been approved and paid for yet, you can delete it and submit a new one.
