Generating Estimates and Invoices from Airtable
I've done a small amount of freelance work over the years, and I used Blinksale for invoicing. Very low volume, like 3/month or 30-40 per year.
About a year ago, or so, the monthly price doubled from $9.99 to $19.99.
The price still makes sense if I was sending out at least a handful of invoices, and ultimately, generating substantial revenue.
Fortunately, I was able to export the data.
The data was then parsed and imported into Airtable.
From there, I have a Rails app, as part of this website, that generates a custom, printable view for the Invoice data.
The tables involved were:
- Organizations
- Addresses
- Invoices
- Line Items
