Automation is now a competitive advantage, not just a convenience. Manually creating invoices, updating clients, or reconciling payments in FreshBooks wastes time and increases the risk of errors.

You can automate FreshBooks workflows in just 10 minutes, without any coding, using resynced.io.

This guide explains how to automate FreshBooks, which tasks to prioritize, and how teams use automation to scale efficiently.

Why Automate FreshBooks Workflows?

FreshBooks is designed for simplicity, but manual processes become inefficient as your business grows.

Common pain points teams face:

  • Recreating invoices for recurring clients
  • Manually syncing customers from CRM tools
  • Updating payment statuses across tools
  • Chasing overdue invoices
  • Human errors in financial data

Automation eliminates these bottlenecks and transforms FreshBooks into a self-updating system.

What Can You Automate in FreshBooks?

Before setup, it is important to clarify what “automation” means in this context.

High-impact FreshBooks workflows to automate:

  • Invoice creation and delivery
  • Client and contact sync
  • Payment status updates
  • Expense logging
  • Notifications and alerts
  • Data sync with CRM, billing, or ops tools

If a task is repetitive and rule-based, it can be automated.

No plugins, coding, or technical setup are required.

Step 2: Choose a Trigger

A trigger is the event that starts the automation.

Popular FreshBooks triggers include:

  • New invoice created
  • Invoice sent
  • Payment received
  • Client added or updated

Step 3: Define the Action

Next, determine the automated action.

Examples:

  • Send invoice data to your CRM
  • Update the deal status when the payment is received
  • Notify Slack when an invoice is overdue
  • Sync invoice totals to a reporting tool

resynced.io uses visual workflows, allowing you to map fields easily without complex logic.

Step 4: Add Rules and Conditions

This step adds significant power to your automation.

You can add conditions like:

  • Run only if invoice amount > $1,000
  • Trigger only for specific clients
  • Exclude drafts or unpaid invoices
