Invoicing day
Stop reconstructing the month from memory
A trustworthy invoice starts with clear entries: what happened, when it happened, which project it belonged to and whether it was billable.
02
Clients need a clear record
Submit or approve a timesheet and export a day-by-day PDF with project details and billable totals.
03
Billing lives somewhere else
Keep the quote, timesheet, invoice, client and project connected so the commercial record matches the delivered work.

Why connected
The billing record stays attached to the work
The goal is not an automatic surveillance timer. It is a deliberate, client-readable record that connects billable work to the same project and invoice.

Know exactly what the workflow does
Is there an automatic timer?
No. BlokNotes uses manual billable entries with a date, duration and description. This keeps each entry deliberate and client-readable rather than relying on background activity tracking.
Can I attach a timesheet to an invoice?
Yes. Export the timesheet as a PDF and keep it with the same client and project as the invoice, then share it alongside the invoice through your usual client channel.
Which document languages are supported?
Generated invoice and timesheet labels support English, Dutch, French and German. The BlokNotes interface itself is currently English.
Does BlokNotes calculate tax and open balances?
Yes. Invoice line items support configurable tax rates and labels. Full or partial payments update the paid amount and open balance, and overdue invoices are identified by their due date and status.
