Bulk Invoice Importing

Bulk invoicing is ideal for planners who want to bill AUM or AUA fees, new users who are getting started, or clients who would prefer to manually approve their payments each month, quarter, etc. Instead of creating invoices manually, you can now create one-time invoices in bulk via an uploaded .CSV file.

Pro tip: Deduct your quarterly fees more efficiently with this feature!
