Billing & Invoicing
Nymble handles both sides of an agency’s money: what clients owe you (receivables) and what you owe contractors and vendors (payables). Both are built from the same tracked time, so an hour a contractor logs shows up on their invoice to you and on your invoice to the client.
Receivables
Section titled “Receivables”Client invoices live under Financial Management > Receivables.
- Create a receivable and pick the account and contract
- Set the service period. The whole of the end date is included
- Nymble pulls every billable time entry on that contract in the period and builds the line items
- Choose how to group the lines: by task, by service, or by project
- Add an adjustment line if you need one, then download the PDF
Rates come from the task rate if one is set, otherwise the contract service rate. Re-run Reconcile on an unpaid invoice to pick up time logged after it was created.
Payables
Section titled “Payables”Contractor invoices live under Financial Management > Payables, and contractors see their own under My Invoices.
- The contractor creates an invoice for a service period
- Nymble pulls their time entries in that period and prices them: task rate, then contract service rate, then their default payable rate
- The contractor sends it; you mark it approved and, later, paid
Employees on payroll do not get payables. Set each person’s status on System > Team Members.
Rates live under Financial Management > Rates. There are three layers, checked in this order:
- Task rate - a specific person on a specific task
- Contract service rate - the billable and payable rate for a service on a contract
- Default rate - each person’s default billable and payable rate on their team profile
All amounts are in your workspace currency.
Expenses
Section titled “Expenses”Record business expenses under Financial Management > Expenses with a vendor, category, date, and amount. Vendors and categories are yours to define. Expenses feed the year-to-date report widget alongside billable and payable totals.
