Email, mail or print invoices
You can select to email, mail, or print invoice, depending on what works best for your workflow.
Note: Please be advised that our invoice printing/mailing partner is experiencing issues that may cause USPS mailed invoices requested beginning 12/24 to be delayed. Our teams are working diligently to resolve the issue. In the meantime, this is a perfect opportunity to get the vendor setup for ePayments, and when they create their subscription-free BILL account, they can receive invoices right in their account.
