Recurring Invoice: How to Automate Invoices for Subscriptions
How to automate invoices that repeat monthly: subscriptions, retainers, fixed services.
If you invoice the same services month after month — subscriptions, retainers, rent, maintenance — manually redoing the same invoice is wasted time and a source of errors. The solution is the recurring invoice: a template that is issued automatically at a set interval.
How it works
You define a template once: the client, the products/services, the quantities, the prices and the VAT rate. Then you set the frequency (usually monthly) and the start date. At each cycle, the app generates the invoice based on the template, with the next number in the series, correct and consecutive.
What you gain
- Zero repetitive work — you no longer redo the same invoice.
- Consistency — the same values, the same series, no transcription errors.
- Predictability — you know invoices go out on time, every month.
Recurring, but under control
A subscription can change: a new price, an extra product, a different client. You edit the template, and the change applies from the next issue — invoices already issued remain unchanged. You can also stop a recurring series at any time.
How it works in facturifirma
In facturifirma you create a recurring invoice from a template, choose the frequency and the start date, and the app automatically issues the invoices at each cycle. Every generated invoice goes through the same flow as a manual one — including transmission through e-Factura to ANAF — and receives the next number in the series.
