Billing Questions

Answers to common questions about invoices, payments, and subscription management.

Invoice Issues

Problem: Invoice shows wrong amount

The total on your invoice doesn't match what you expected based on your time entries.

Possible causes:

  • Hourly rate changed after time was tracked
  • Some entries have different rates than expected
  • Tax was applied when you didn't expect it
  • Not all expected entries were included

Solutions:

  1. 1
    Open the invoice and review each line item
  2. 2
    Check the rate applied to each entry (click to expand details)
  3. 3
    Verify the subtotal before tax
  4. 4
    If incorrect, you can edit the invoice while it's in Draft status

Note

TeeckIn uses the hourly rate that was set on the topic at the time the entry was created, not the current rate. This ensures historical accuracy.

Problem: Can't find my invoice

You created an invoice but can't find it anywhere.

Solutions:

  1. 1
    Go to Billing page
  2. 2
    Click the "Invoices" tab
  3. 3
    Check the status filter — you might be filtering out Draft invoices
  4. 4
    Search by invoice number or client name
  5. 5
    Make sure you're in the correct organization

Problem: PDF download isn't working

Clicking "Download PDF" doesn't download anything or shows an error.

Solutions:

  1. 1
    Check if your browser is blocking pop-ups from teeckin.com
  2. 2
    Try right-clicking and selecting "Save link as"
  3. 3
    Check your downloads folder — it may have downloaded without notification
  4. 4
    Try a different browser if the issue persists

Problem: Can't edit an invoice

The edit option is grayed out or clicking edit doesn't work.

Possible causes:

  • Invoice has been marked as Sent or Paid
  • Invoice has been voided

Solutions:

  1. 1
    Only Draft invoices can be edited
  2. 2
    If you need to make changes to a Sent invoice, void it and create a new one
  3. 3
    For minor corrections, you can add a credit note (coming soon)

Warning

Once an invoice is marked as Sent, it's treated as a legal document and shouldn't be modified. This maintains accurate records for accounting purposes.

Subscription Questions

Problem: Can't access Pro features

You subscribed to Pro but features still show as locked.

Solutions:

  1. 1
    Refresh the page — subscription status may need to update
  2. 2

  3. 3
    Verify the payment was successful in your email
  4. 4
    Log out and log back in to refresh your session
  5. 5
    If payment shows as pending, wait a few minutes for processing

Note

Most subscription activations happen instantly, but occasionally it can take up to 5 minutes for the status to propagate.

Problem: Subscription payment failed

Your subscription payment didn't go through and you received an error.

Possible causes:

  • Card declined by bank
  • Insufficient funds
  • Card expired
  • 3D Secure authentication required but not completed

Team Billing

Problem: How team seat billing works

Understanding how you're charged for team members.

Team billing explained:

  • Each team member (except the owner) uses one seat
  • You pay per seat per month/year
  • Adding seats mid-cycle charges a prorated amount
  • Removing seats takes effect at the end of the billing cycle
  • Owner account includes one seat for themselves

Problem: Removed a member but still being charged

You removed a team member but are still seeing charges for them.

Explanation:

When you remove a member, the seat reduction takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle. This ensures you get the full value of what you've already paid.

To verify:

  1. 1
    Go to Settings and check your organization's members
  2. 2
    Confirm the member has been removed
  3. 3
    Check the "Subscription" section for pending seat changes
  4. 4
    The next invoice will reflect the reduced seat count
