Adding Line Items to an Invoice

Line items are the individual charges on your invoice — labor, materials, services.

How to Add Line Items

1. On the invoice editor, scroll to the Line Items section
2. Click + Add Item
3. Fill in:

• Description — what you did ("Kitchen faucet installation", "Copper pipe 10ft")
• Quantity — hours or units
• Rate — your price per unit

1. The amount auto-calculates (Qty × Rate)
2. Add more items as needed

Tips for Professional Invoices

• Separate labor from materials — customers appreciate transparency
• Be specific — "Replaced 3 GFCI outlets in kitchen" is better than "Electrical work"
• Round to clean numbers — $75/hour looks more professional than $73.50

Pro tip: For big jobs, group by area: "Kitchen - Labor", "Kitchen - Materials", "Bathroom - Labor", etc.

Common Mistakes

Don't put everything in one line item. Breaking it down builds trust and looks more professional.
