Current Quotes & Invoices tool is too bare bones for a creative agency with a retainer relationship with clients. It also requires manual creation of each line item in the invoice. Seeking capability for the following functions:
Create invoice based on all items in board
Create invoice based on all items in board with time tracked in a given period (this month, last month, last quarter, user defined custom date range)
Set default billing rate for time tracked
Set custom billing rates for different types of work. E.g., time tracked as a Designer = $50/hour and time tracked as Developer = $75/hour. Custom billing rates could be a column, or tag, not tied to the user because one user could do different types of work or have different billing rates for different clients.
Option to pull in items from other boards (maybe one client is connected to multiple boards, would be helpful to make one invoice for all items for that client, grouped by board).
@mrautomation - Do you think the planned roadmap for Automated Invoice Tracker might handle all of these requirements, for automatic billing through QBO in 2022?

I have been using the time tracking columns within Monday.com (which constantly have issues) and then manually recording the hours to a text column which then gets pulled into a word doc template via DocuGen integration with Monday.com. I am also using General Caster to make a lot of this happen too since formulas aren’t supported by DocuGen.
It’s a pain in the butt and there should definitely be native support for this kind of stuff within Monday.com
