How to send or resend an invoice in Dumpster Controls

Every order drawer has quick invoice actions: copy the public invoice link to share anywhere, or resend the invoice by email and SMS in two clicks.

Before you start

• An existing invoice on the order.
• For sending: a customer email or phone number on file.

1. Copy the invoice link

   In the order drawer, click "Invoice Link". The public link is copied to your clipboard so you can paste it into any app. A tooltip confirms: "Copy Invoice Link", "Send to the customer via any app".

2. Or resend by email and SMS

   Click "Send Invoice". A dialog asks how you'd like to send it, with toggles for "Email" and "Text Message (SMS)" showing the contact info on file.

3. Confirm

   Click "Send Invoice" in the dialog. A confirmation shows which channels were used.

What happens next

• The customer receives the invoice with its live payment status and, if unpaid and payable online, a "Pay Now" button.

Troubleshooting

It says "No contact info".

The customer has no email or phone on file. Add contact info to the customer record, or use "Invoice Link" and share the link manually.

It says "Invoice not found".

No invoice has been generated for this order yet.
