What Gets Included

Each task becomes an invoice line item with:

FieldSource
NameTask title, date range, and total duration
PriceTask hourly rate
QuantityTotal time spent (used to calculate the line total)
DescriptionTask description, if one exists

If the task currency differs from your organization currency, PineBill converts the hourly rate using current exchange rates.


Before Converting

Make sure the following are in place before converting:

  • Stop all running timers — Tasks with active timers cannot be converted. Stop the timer first so the final time is recorded.
  • Set an hourly rate — Tasks without an hourly rate will have a zero price on the invoice line item.
  • Check time entries — Review the total time spent and make manual adjustments if needed.

After Converting

  • PineBill opens the invoice generator pre-filled with the task line items
  • The invoice is saved as a Draft — you can edit it before sending
  • Once the invoice is created, it is linked to the original tasks via the task's invoice field
  • You can view the linked invoice from the task detail sidebar
