Invoices: How to send and Track Invoice Emails

RoasterTools makes it easy to email invoices to your customers directly from an order.  You can view whether an invoice has been sent right from the Orders page.

Invoice tracking on the Orders page

The Orders page includes an Invoice Sent column so you can see at a glance whether an invoice email has been sent for each order.

Here's what each status means:

  • ✓ (checkmark) - The invoice has been sent.
  • Blank - The invoice has not been sent yet.
  • -  (Dash) - Unknown. The order was created before invoice tracking started, so we don't have data on whether an invoice was sent. (before Feb 20th, 2026)


How to send an invoice email

You can email an invoice to your customer directly from any individual order.

  1. Go to Orders and click into the order you want to invoice.
  2. Scroll down and click the Email Invoice button.
  3. Before you click, hover over the button to see who the invoice will be sent to.
  4. Click the button to send. You'll see a confirmation message: "The invoice email is on its way."

Tip: After sending, it may take a few moments for the invoice to appear in the order history. Refresh the page if you don't see it right away.


Viewing invoice history and recipients

Once an invoice has been sent, the order history will show a record of it — including who it was sent to and when.

  • The order history entry will say the invoice was sent and list the primary recipient.
  • If the invoice was sent to more than one email address, you'll see a link like "and 2 more" — hover over it to see the full list of recipients.
  • The timestamp of when the invoice was sent is also included.


Resending an invoice

Need to send the invoice again? No problem — you can resend it at any time from the same order.

  1. Go into the order and click the Email Invoice button again.
  2. You'll see a note that the invoice was already sent, but you can go ahead and send it again.

Each send will be logged in the order history, so you'll always have a record of every invoice email that went out.


Tips & FAQs

Q: Who receives the invoice email?

A: The invoice goes to the email address(es) associated with that customer's account. You can see exactly who it will be sent to by hovering over the Email Invoice button before clicking.

Q: Why do some orders show a ( - ) instead of a checkmark or blank?

A: Invoice tracking started on February 20, 2026. For orders that existed before that date, we don't have data on whether an invoice was previously sent, so they show the # (unknown) status.

Q: Can I send an invoice to a different email address?

A: The invoice is sent to the email(s) on file for that customer. You currently can't choose who the email goes to.
