Approved work in, one invoice out.
An invoice CLAIMS approved, billable, unclaimed work - so an hour or an expense belongs to exactly one invoice and can never be billed twice. Time details, expense details and the receipts themselves render into a single PDF your client can actually read, and the number is assigned at SEND, so a draft never burns one.
Available by request. Start a workspace and ask us for it, and we'll set it up with you and tell you what it costs for a team your size.
What you get
- Work is claimed, not copied - nothing bills twice
- One integrated PDF: summary, time, expenses, receipts appendix
- Numbered when you send, so drafts never burn a number
- Posts to QuickBooks or Curfew Books; payments push back
- A/R aging and a WIP list that will not let work go unbilled
How it works
- 1
It already knows what is billable
Approved, billable and not yet on an invoice. An entry can belong to exactly one invoice — the database refuses the second — so nothing is billed twice, and voiding an invoice releases its work to be billed properly.
- 2
One PDF, not four attachments
The summary page, time detail grouped by person, expense detail, and the receipts themselves — images laid out as caption cards, PDF receipts merged in behind their own caption page.

Send it
The number is assigned when you send, not when you start a draft, so an abandoned draft never burns one. Email it with the PDF attached, or mark it delivered by hand if your client insists on their own portal.
One document: the summary, the hours behind it, and the receipts behind those.
Common questions
Where does it post?
On Curfew Books, a journal entry against accounts receivable and revenue, with the payment posting when it arrives. If QuickBooks is your accounting system of record instead, it creates a real QuickBooks invoice carrying our number, so their aging report and ours agree.
A client wants their own format.
Each client can carry its own profile — what the invoice must show and how it is certified — so the awkward one does not become a manual document every month.
What about the work we did before Curfew?
Historical invoices imported from another system are readable beside the native ones, rendered to the same design, so your archive does not split in two on the day you switch.
Invoicing is one app in Curfew Suite.
Use it on its own for as long as you like. If you ever add another, it shares the same login, the same bill and the same data underneath.
