Smokeball Billing Release – April 2023

Check out what's new in Smokeball Billing for the month of April.

New Features

Improvements to Professional Fee Summary in invoices

The Professional Fee Summary table now shows the full name of the timekeeper, the hours they completed and their rate.

  • Rows are grouped by timekeeper. If a timekeeper has varying hourly rates, each different rate will be shown on a separate line.
  • Fees written off will now also be included in the summary, in strikethrough italics.
  • The Role column can be toggled off in Invoice Template Settings.

Learn how to access Invoice Template Settings and turn on the Professional Fee Summary for your invoices.

Add a Pay Now button to Invoice Reminder emails

When customising your invoice reminder email template, you now have the option to insert a Pay Now button anywhere on the body of the email.

To access this functionality, your firm must have enabled credit card payments in Smokeball Billing.

Note: If the Pay Now button is disabled on a matter, this Pay Now button will not display in Invoice Reminder emails.
