Background

You can create an owner invoice that bills against a prime contract and then email it to your recipients. If you need to send your invoice to the project owner, this method allows them to view the invoice in your Procore (only they have a Procore user account and you've granted the user access). This proves useful when you want to capture the owner's written approval or rejection reason in writing. Procore automatically stores all replies from recipients in the 'From' address of your outgoing message in the Emails tab of the invoice.

Things to Consider

  • Required User Permissions

  • Additional Information:

    • Clicking the Email Invoice button sends a copy of the invoice's 'Detail' tab to the designated recipients.

     Note

    • A record of your outgoing message is saved in the 'Emails' tab on the invoice.

    • Any messages sent to the 'From' address on your outgoing message are automatically saved in the invoice's 'Emails' tab. This provides your message recipients with the convenience to use the reply feature in their email program. It also captures your collaborator's approve or reject responses in writing.
