Many-to-One Invoicing from the Progress Payments sub-tab – RAVE Financial Update
This feature allows you to select multiple invoiceables from the progress payment sub-tab, choose specific percentages to charge for each invoiceable, and then create a single invoice (or credit note) for them all.

  > A 'Many-to-One Invoicing from the Progress Payments sub-tab' FAQ guide is available from the RAVE Help portal

Convert an Estimate to a Payment Schedule – RAVE Financial New Feature
This feature allows you to take an accepted estimate (from your RAVE FMS workflows) and turn it into a payment schedule invoiceable.

You can then choose to add those as a list of invoiceables, or just convert the estimate into a single line invoiceable using the category name(s) as the description and the category total(s) as the amount.

  > A 'Convert a Client Estimate to a Progress Payment/Charge Up Invoiceable' FAQ guide is available from the RAVE Help portal

Bulk Payment of Invoices & Credit Notes – RAVE Financial Update
You can now select multiple invoices & credit notes, and add payments to all of them at once.  This is much faster than the previous process, which required payments to be added to an invoice individually.

NEW Charge Up Report – RAVE Financial New Feature
This new report displays the total of your quotes in all accepted estimates (including variations) by category, compared to the invoices sent for those categories. This allows you to ensure you have properly charged your clients and haven’t left any money on the table.

> A step-by-step FAQ guide will be available from RAVE Help soon
