Can I create invoices from my reports?

We realize that it’s important to be able to bill your clients for the time you’ve logged into Tempo. Since there are a number of well-established and professional solutions for invoicing available, we’ve been striving to provide you with easy ways to integrate with some of the most common methods and services.

Note: This is an integration feature that is only available to Moderato-level accounts and higher. This feature is unavailable to Adagio (Free) and Andante accounts.

In the Reports section, you will see a ‘Create Invoice’ option in the lower right hand corner of the Filter Time window. Create a report containing all the time slips you want to appear in the invoice, and click on that option. A new Invoice window will appear where you can choose to integrate with Quickbooks or Blinksale to create your invoice.

One important thing to remember is that Invoicing in Tempo works just like Reports, Charts, and Exports: what you see is what you get. When you create an invoice, Tempo assumes that you want to invoice for the time entries it is currently showing, based on the date range you’ve selected, and filters by any users, projects, or tags that you’ve selected. By default we populate the memo field with a description of the time entries you are invoicing for, to make this clear.

There are currently two different Invoice types in Tempo, Quickbooks and Blinksale.
