Frequently Asked Questions
How does recurring billing work for architecture firm retainers?
You set up a recurring billing profile for each client's architecture retainer with the monthly amount, billing date, and payment terms. The system automatically generates and sends invoices on the scheduled date each month. Clients receive invoices via email and can pay online. You can track payment status and see which clients have paid for their ongoing architectural services.
Can I track retainer drawdowns for design hours and project work?
Yes, if clients pay retainers upfront, you can track drawdowns as you deliver architectural work like design development, construction documents, project management, and site visits. The system shows remaining retainer balance and can send notifications when the retainer needs replenishment. You can also combine retainer drawdowns with monthly billing for clients who use both payment methods.
What if a client wants to add additional architectural work beyond their retainer?
You can add one-time charges for additional architectural work that exceeds the retainer amount. The recurring billing profile continues for the base retainer, and you create separate invoices for extra architectural work. This allows you to bill for both ongoing retainer services and one-time architectural projects separately.
How do I handle different project types with different retainer amounts?
You can create separate recurring billing profiles for different project types. For example, residential architecture retainers might be different from commercial architecture retainers. Each project type has its own monthly retainer amount, and you can easily customize billing based on the scope of work included in each retainer package.
