Additional context It would be great to:
- make recurring projects
- only invoice the hours that are “over” the budgeted hours
Eg. I have monthly services like ‘server management 2 hours’ which recur each month. I would like to recreate that project each month and that the tasks of the first 2 hours are “free” for the client and time above 2 hours are billed.
How would this differ from just creating a recurring invoice? Once the invoice is generated you can still update the invoice to include any extras?
When an invoice is created, we are prohibited to change it. A sent invoice may never be altered.
This feature would come it handy to handle service subscriptions with include fixed working hours. Here it is quite common to sell service packages which contains x-hours of service per month and invoice the extra hours worked.
In my example of server management: a client has a monthly subscription what includes 2 hours of management per month. I add all the quarters and half hours worked as tasks. These tasks would be part of a monthly recurring project. The tasks that succeed the budgeted hours of that month, will be invoiced.
So my client does have a view on the tasks performed, what time that took, what time is left and what eventually will be billed as overtime.
