Create enabled email stages with stage names, delay timing, owner or customer recipients, and a timezone so overdue invoice follow-up follows the same rules across your organization.
Open an invoice to see follow-up status, the next planned action, recipient details, and a timeline of reminder events without searching through separate email threads.
Use invoice actions to send the next reminder now, pause follow-up, resume a paused flow, skip the next step, or cancel reminder handling when the situation no longer needs automation.
Customer reminder emails can use a manual invoice-level recipient override, a linked contact email, or a linked company email. Owner-facing stages use the organization email.
Draft invoices do not run payment follow-up, closed invoices are not active, and invoices without due dates cannot schedule automatic follow-up until the missing date is resolved.
Use the collections queue to filter payment follow-up by invoice number, recipient, status, next action timing, and actionable rows when a team needs to focus on overdue work.
Use it when issued invoices need scheduled payment follow-up after a due date has passed.
Use it when reminder actions need to be paused, resumed, skipped, cancelled, or sent immediately for one invoice.
Use it when reminders should go to a linked customer email or a manual invoice-level recipient override.
Define the reminder stages your team wants to use, choose whether each stage goes to the owner or customer, and keep disabled stages out of the active flow.
Payment follow-up depends on invoice status and due-date context, so issued invoices with clear due dates give the automation enough information to schedule the next step.
Review the resolved recipient on the invoice and add a manual override when accounts payable needs reminders sent to a specific billing address.
Watch the timeline, use quick actions when a case needs manual judgment, and let scheduled processing continue for invoices that still need follow-up.
