Overview
Snippets are reusable text blocks for invoices and proposals. Standardize payment terms, thank-you messages, and scope descriptions to save time and maintain consistency.
Use snippets in:
- Invoice notes
- Proposal scope sections
- Client messages
Benefits: Consistency, time savings, and Every Agent integration for professional messaging

Using Snippets
In Invoices
Create/edit invoice → Notes field → Insert Snippet → Select snippet → Edit if needed → Save
Default snippets auto-fill on new invoices but can be overridden
Ask Every Agent: Apply snippets to invoices:
- “Use my standard payment terms snippet on this invoice for ACME Corp”
- “Create an invoice with my ‘Thank You’ snippet in the notes”
- “Add the late payment notice snippet to invoice #1234”
In Proposals
Scope/Client Message: Click Insert Snippet → Select → Customize
Setting Defaults
Edit snippet → Check Default for Invoices/Proposals → Save. All new documents will auto-fill with this snippet.
Every Agent Integration
Every Agent references your snippets when creating invoices/proposals, ensuring consistent language and maintaining your brand voice.
Example: “Create an invoice for ACME Corp” → Agent uses your default payment terms snippet automatically
Managing Snippets
Access: Go to Invoices → Customize to view and manage all your snippets
Ask Every Agent: Manage your snippet library:
- “Show me all my snippets”
- “List all payment terms snippets”
- “Create a new snippet for payment terms”
Editing Snippets
Open snippet → Edit → Update → Save
Impact: Only new uses get updated text. Existing documents preserved.
Ask Every Agent: Update snippets easily:
- “Update my ‘Net 30 Terms’ snippet to change the email to [email protected]”
- “Edit the thank you snippet to add our new phone number”
- “Change my default invoice snippet to include online payment instructions”
Deleting Snippets
In Invoices → Customize, find the snippet → Delete → Confirm. Historical documents with this snippet are preserved.
Deleted snippets cannot be recovered. Make sure you no longer need the snippet before deleting.
Best Practices
Create snippets for repetitive text - Anything typed more than 3 times deserves a snippet.
Use clear names - “Net 30 Payment Terms” > “Terms 1”
Set defaults - Default snippets save the most time on common documents.
Update regularly - Keep contact info, policies, and pricing current.
