In short

How do I chase my firm's overdue client invoices automatically?

Every Monday, WebRun opens Ignition, finds the firm's client invoices that are past due, and notes the amount and days overdue for each. It drafts a polite payment reminder to each client in Gmail, leaves every draft unsent for you to review, and posts the team a Slack list of who still owes, so the firm's own receivables stop slipping.

  • The firm's own overdue invoices surface every Monday, not at quarter end
  • Each reminder is drafted and waiting, so you just review and send
  • Receivables get chased consistently instead of whenever someone remembers

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it email clients without me?

No. WebRun only drafts each payment reminder in Gmail and leaves it unsent. You read every message and click send, so no reminder reaches a client without your approval first.

How does it know which invoices are overdue?

It reads the status of each client invoice in Ignition every Monday and lists only those past their due date. Anything already paid is dropped from the list automatically.

Will it remind a client who just paid?

No. WebRun checks the live invoice status in Ignition each run and skips anyone who has paid, plus anyone already reminded in the last week.
