Invoicing for consulting work

Consulting engagements often blend retainers, day rates and ad-hoc hours, and clients frequently route invoices through procurement. Tie each invoice to the statement of work, itemise the time clearly, and use professional Net-30 terms where expected. Set scope and price first with a quote or estimate, then bill against it. The same engine powers the general invoice generator.

Frequently asked questions

What should a consulting invoice include?
Your firm and tax details, the client, the engagement or statement-of-work reference, an invoice number and dates, itemised advisory services (by hour, day or retainer), tax, the total, and payment terms.
How do I bill a retainer or day rate?
Add a line item with quantity = days (or months) and the rate = your day or monthly rate. Mix in hourly lines for ad-hoc work on the same invoice.
Can I reference a statement of work?
Yes — put the SOW or contract reference in the notes so the client can match the invoice to the agreed scope.
Is it private and free?
Yes. The PDF is produced in your browser with no sign-up, no watermark and no upload of your data.
