}Use it when
Chasing everyone who is late in one go, by hand or from a weekly schedule.
- For one invoice, use
invoices_remind.
What it does
Email a reminder about every sent invoice at least days_overdue days past its due date that still has a balance, the longest overdue first, up to limit invoices: one call, or one weekly schedule (schedules_create), chases them all. Each invoice is reminded at most once a day; the ones that can't be (no customer email, emailed in the last 24 hours, the address bounced) are listed with why. $0.02 per reminder sent.
What comes back
reminded: the invoices reminded, each with its number, customer, due date and who was emailed; skipped: the ones that could not be, with why; days_overdue. Every reply also carries cost_usd and balance_usd.
