What Are Billable Hours? Time Tracking Tips to Get You Paid


Frequently Asked Questions  

How do I handle expenses on an hourly invoice?  

When you invoice for hourly work, you’ll include a line with the number of hours worked and then separate line items for other things like the total cost and expenses. Hourly invoice templates by FreshBooks make it easy to include details for everything you’re billing for, including fillable fields for labour and expenses.

Can I add discounts on an hourly invoice?  

Yes, you can add discounts and any other payment terms you’d like on an hourly invoice. Hourly invoice templates by FreshBooks are customisable so you can add all the details, like everything from early-payment discounts to special payment terms for preferred and recurring clients.

How do I handle time tracking on an hourly invoice?  

The easiest way to manage time tracking on an hourly invoice is simply to include details on the service you provide and then how many hours worked. If you’re providing multiple services or services at different rates (for example, standard and overtime), put these as separate line items with total hours for each.

What should I include in the terms and conditions of an hourly invoice? 

Your terms and conditions on an hourly invoice should include a payment due date, payment instructions, and any conditions for early or late payment. The most common payment date is Net 30, or 30 days from the invoice date or services rendered. Conditions could include fees for late payment. 

What payment methods should I accept on an hourly invoice? 

Accepted payment methods are up to you, but some common methods include e-transfer and credit payments. Some people also choose to accept cash, debit, and bank transfers. FreshBooks invoicing software lets you accept online payments so you can manage all your billing in one easy system.
