The problem
Fees leak between the timesheet and the invoice
When time lives in one tool, fees in a letter and invoices in another, firms under-bill without noticing and only find out at year end.
How it works
From recorded time to paid invoice
Record
Start a timer on the job or add time afterwards. Every entry sits on the job and client.
Track
WIP builds against the fee and budget, so you see over-runs while they are happening.
Invoice
Raise the invoice from the agreed fee, recurring schedule or recorded time.
Collect
Send it to the client portal, take payment where supported, and see it reconciled.
What you get
Timesheet software for accountants, and more
Time, WIP, invoicing and collection in one place, each reading the fee your client agreed.
Timers and timesheets
One-click timers, a weekly timesheet view and keyboard entry for people who prefer it.
WIP and realisation
Recorded time against fee and budget on every job, client and team.
Fixed and recurring fees
Monthly, quarterly and annual fees bill themselves on the schedule in the letter.
Out-of-scope work
Flag time outside the agreed services and turn it into a new fee or a proposal.
Invoices in the portal
Clients see invoices beside their work, with the amount and service in plain words.
Payment status
Paid, due and overdue invoices on the client record and the firm dashboard.
The agreed fee, billed
An invoice that matches the letter
The fee and billing schedule come straight from the signed engagement letter, so the invoice your client receives is the one they agreed to.
Clients see it in their portal as “Your invoice for year-end accounts is ready — $2,400.00, as agreed in your proposal.”

Where it sits
The stage that closes the cycle
Billing reads the fee agreed in the proposal and the time recorded on the job. Nothing is rebuilt at month end.

Questions firms ask us.
Can we bill fixed fees and time together?
Yes. Fixed fees, recurring fees and time-based billing all work from the same record, and a client can have a mix of all three.
What does realisation mean in FigsFlow?
Recorded time against the fee agreed for a job or client. FigsFlow shows it live, so you can act before a job runs over.
Can clients pay online?
Online payment depends on the providers available in your country. The availability page lists what is live where your firm is based.
Which currencies can we invoice in?
Invoices can be issued in the currency your firm bills in. Check the availability page for the currencies supported in your country.
