Freelancer Invoice Template

You can create freelance invoices automatically from Google Sheets in a few easy steps. It is simple to use Portant as a free Google Sheets invoice template which contains all kinds of different elements, including your logo, unique invoice numbers, invoice date, payment terms, and contact information. After you've opened Portant Workflow, select your Google Sheet, then connect a Google Docs invoice template, customise your blank self employed invoice template with column tags, attach it to an email, and finally click 'Start automation', and voila!, you’ve automated your invoicing from Google Sheets!

We know how painful and monotonous it can be to copy and paste invoice data into invoice templates, double-check all the information is correct, save it as a PDF, and then send the sales invoice template or service invoice template to your customers. That’s why we’ve come to the rescue.

With Portant, you can connect a Google Sheet to an invoice template, click a few buttons, and invoices will be magically generated and sent whenever you need to. You can also customise the email and who it's sent from (e.g accounts@portant.co). It's easy to place your self-employed invoice process on autopilot.

How It Works

Step 1 - Select your Sheet

To select your Google Sheet - first log in via your Google account and then authorise Portant to view your Sheets. You can get started by copying this template:

Step 2 - Select your invoice template

When you connect your Google Sheet, you can replace our invoice template with your own if you have one prepared already or edit our one. Also, you can connect multiple documents (e.g. if you need to send a contract with an invoice 😀)

Step 3 - Customise the invoice

Open the document block and add tags into your invoice template. You can format the tags and the data from your Google Sheet will be inserted using the same format (bold, italic, colour etc)You can use data grouping to insert multiple rows from your Google Sheet into the same invoice (e.g. if your line items are split on separate rows in your Google Sheet)
