    Hi everyone, thanks for continuing to raise your needs in proforma invoicing with us here.

    Atm, deposits can only be taken against approved invoices(powered by Stripe), and taking payment against quotes or draft invoices isn’t supported at this point.

    We understand that pre-invoice and proforma-style workflows matter for some businesses, especially where payment needs to be secured before the final invoice is raised.

    Earlier-stage deposit workflows is something we’re considering for the direction in this space, and we’ll share more here if that progresses further.

    Proforma invoices are an essential element to businesses that have a lead-time to their work. Is there any way to expedite this feature? It would be a huge plus for all contractors who receive part payments at stages throughout the work they are doing.
