"NextMinute is probably the program that you'd design for yourself to use for scheduling and quoting, if you could! It's got a refreshing design... and the support is second to none... Recommended by The Landscape Association... if you're thinking of switching from your current system then look no further..."

Common Questions

We’ve answered the ones we hear most from builders and tradies.

Can I customise the look of my invoices?

You can generate tidy, professional invoices that feature your own logo, payment terms, and GST details. It looks a lot sharper than a basic spreadsheet and helps build trust with your clients.

How accurate are the invoices when using crew timesheets?

They’re spot on because the data comes directly from the source. Since the crew logs their hours in the app, you can pull that actual labour straight into your invoicing. No more trying to decipher messy notes or chasing the crew for their hours on a Friday night.

What trades is the invoicing tool best suited for in NZ?

It's purpose-built for Kiwi tradies running multi-stage residential projects, such as builders, landscapers, roofers, and renovation specialists. If your jobs involve various stages, materials, and crew hours, this will be right up your alley.

Can I pull supplier bills directly into my invoices?

Yes, once you've connected your accounting software, you can pull supplier invoices straight into NextMinute. This ensures every bit of material cost is accounted for when you're billing the client, so your margins stay exactly where they should be.

Is it easy to invoice for charge-up or cost-plus jobs?

Absolutely. Whether you're doing fixed price, cost-plus, or straight charge-up work, the system fits your workflow. You can choose exactly how much detail the client sees on the invoice while keeping the behind-the-scenes cost data for your own records.

How do I make sure I don't forget to bill for variations?

NextMinute makes managing variations a breeze by letting you track them as they happen. When it’s time to invoice, you can pull those variations straight into the bill so nothing gets missed and you aren't left out of pocket for extra labour or materials.

Can I handle progress claims for larger residential builds?

You bet. NextMinute is built for multi-stage projects like new builds and renos, allowing you to invoice in stages. You can easily track what’s been paid and what’s still owing, which helps keep your cashflow healthy throughout the entire project.

Does the software work with Xero, MYOB, or QuickBooks?

It sure does. NextMinute features a two-way sync with Xero, MYOB, and QuickBooks. This means your invoices and supplier bills flow between systems automatically, so you don't have to waste time on double entry or keep your bookkeeper waiting.

How does NextMinute help me get paid faster on-site?

You can knock out and send professional, branded invoices directly from your phone or tablet while you're still on-site or sitting in the ute. By pulling in timesheets and materials with one click, you aren't waiting until the weekend to catch up on paperwork, meaning the bill gets to the client sooner.
