Deposits and progress billing

Progress invoicing software for deposits, milestones and variations

Not every job should be invoiced in one final amount. JobWay Premium lets you create deposit, progress and variation invoices while keeping the financial position of the overall job visible.

What JobWay handles

A clearer workflow without rebuilding the same details

Deposit invoices

Request an upfront amount before work begins and track it against the job.

Progress invoices

Invoice a selected amount at a milestone instead of automatically billing the whole remainder.

Variation invoices

Keep approved extra work visible rather than hiding it inside the original job value.

Multiple invoices per job

Create more than one invoice while retaining the connection to the same job.

Remaining balance

Review quoted, varied, invoiced, paid and remaining values from job financials.

Client-ready documents

Email professional invoice PDFs and public links for each billing stage.

How it works

From the first record to a clear financial outcome

1Set up the job and agreed value
2Create the deposit or selected progress amount
3Add later milestone or variation invoices as work continues
4Record payments and confirm what remains uninvoiced or unpaid

Invoice the amount that makes sense for the stage of work

Large projects, material-heavy work and jobs with multiple milestones often need more than one invoice. JobWay allows the user to choose the amount being invoiced rather than forcing every invoice to equal the entire remaining job value.

Variation invoices keep extra approved work separate and visible. This gives the business a clearer trail of the original job value, subsequent additions, invoices issued and payments received.

Deposits, progress invoices and variation invoices are Premium features. Eligible new users can test the complete Premium workflow during the 28-day no-card trial.

Questions answered

Frequently asked questions

Can one job have multiple invoices?

Yes. A job can have multiple linked invoices, including deposit, progress, variation and final invoices where appropriate.

Can I choose the amount of a progress invoice?

Yes. You can enter the amount that should be invoiced for that stage rather than automatically invoicing the full remaining value.

Can I invoice variations separately?

Yes. Premium supports variation invoices so approved extras can be tracked distinctly.

Does JobWay show the remaining job balance?

Yes. Job financials show key values such as invoiced, paid and remaining amounts for linked records.

Is progress invoicing included in Basic?

No. Deposit, progress and variation invoices are Premium features, but they are available during the 28-day Premium trial.
