1DayLater - The Blog

Designers, now you can create customized 1DayLater invoices

Regular 1DayLater users will have noticed several improvements to 1DayLater’s PDF invoicing tool over the last few weeks; but what news for our designer community?

Well, we listened to popular demand and made it easy for designers to create their own invoice templates. We even wrote a short user guide to help. Non-designers should be seeing more customization options next year.

A case study: Digitalized Web Design

Web design company ‘Digitalized’ wanted to create an invoice which their clients would recognise immediately. They amended the standard 1DayLater template to include their own colour scheme and business logo.

The result is a sleek and professional looking template which can be populated straight from the PDF invoice tool in the ‘business tools’ section of 1DayLater.

Needing some inspiration for your design?

If you need some ideas to help you get started, we recommend you check out 1DayLater’s Flickr page. Here you can find all of the current non-customized templates for 1DayLater, including some from our friend Balazs Ertl Bakos.

Have you designed an invoice template which others would use?

Get in touch and send us your design. If we think other 1DayLater users would use it, then we will give you a free premium licence to thank you for your hard work - Send this to designs@1daylater.com

Some recent improvements to 1DayLater

Well it’s been a little while since we updated the blog; I figured it was about time we told you about some of the recent improvements that have been made to 1DayLater.

The main thing that our users have been asking for is a mechanism that allows customer details and invoice defaults to be saved. And that’s what we’ve done…

Invoice defaults

Now each time you select a client or project you will get an additional option to save details. As well as saving the client address, this will also save any other pertinent information such as your hourly rate for that client.

Although this is a fairly minor change we think it will make the invoicing tool much more functional. We’ve already had some positive feedback from regular users, saying that it’s saving time when working on multiple projects.

Templates

The other main improvement is with our templates. We’ve teamed up with our new pal Balazs Ertl-Bakos from Hungary to improve 1DayLater’s range of templates and we can now offer a customised service for users who need something extra.

Although this aspect of 1DayLater is still in its infancy, Balazs has shown great talent and skill and we think that user will be impressed by the new service.

Check out the new range of templates

For any users who want something a bit more personalised, please get in touch and we can introduce you to Balazs. If you need one of the standard templates in high resolution then please contact support@1daylater.com

Well that’s it for this blog post, but hopefully more updates and improvements coming soon!

Cheers
