Web Link to an Invoice

Share an invoice outside Ruddr by copying its unique web link, and see what clients view for draft, published, and paid invoices.

All invoices in Ruddr have an associated web link. A web link is a unique URL that allows you to provide access to the invoice to anyone inside or outside of your company. If you do not use Ruddr’s built-in invoice email feature, you can instead paste the web link into an email that you compose and send. To retrieve the web link for an invoice, simply click on the Get Web Link option on the invoice menu (Figure 1), available in the invoices list or when viewing the invoice detail.

Clicking on this menu item will bring up a window (Figure 2) that will include the web link URL. You can click on the Copy URL button to copy the URL to your clipboard.

It is important to realize that web links are not password protected. Anyone who has the web link can view the associated invoice. A web link to a draft invoice will only show that single invoice while a web link to a published invoice will include a drop-down (Figure 3) that will show all published invoices related to that client.

When an invoice is a draft or has been fully paid, the word “DRAFT” or “PAID” will be shown (Figure 4) at the top of the web link view of the invoice.
