How to use Rapid Hub

Plain-language guides so anyone on your team can find the right screen, create an invoice, and understand what happens next.

Start here

What Rapid Hub is for

Rapid Hub keeps billing, client records, tracking, and account settings together so you do not need separate tools for the basics.

Create invoice

How to create an invoice

Use this flow when you want to make a new invoice from scratch or update a saved draft.

1. Start a new invoice

Go to Invoices and choose Create New Invoice. That opens the invoice editor.

2. Enter who you are billing

Add the customer name, email, and address. If the client already exists, pick them from the saved client list to reuse their details.

3. Add your business details

Check your business name, email, logo, address, and invoice label so the invoice looks right before you send it.

4. Add line items

List the products or services, quantity, and unit price. The app calculates the subtotal and total automatically.

5. Review totals

Use discount, shipping, tax rate, and payment terms to match the exact amount you want to charge.

6. Save the invoice

Choose the right status, then save the invoice. You can come back later to edit it, duplicate it, or mark it as paid.

After save

What you can do with a saved invoice

Once an invoice exists, you can keep working from the invoice detail page without starting over.

Download or print

Open the invoice to download the PDF or print it from your browser.

Send to the customer

Use the send option when you want the customer to receive the invoice by email.

Edit or duplicate

Update the same invoice later, or duplicate it when you need another invoice with similar details.

Check logs

Review the invoice logs when you want to see activity like payment changes or other invoice events.

Clients

Why client records matter

Saved clients make invoicing faster because you can reuse contact details instead of typing the same information again.

Save once, reuse later

When a customer becomes a regular client, save them in Clients so future invoices are quicker to build.

Keep addresses and emails organized

Client records help keep billing details tidy and reduce mistakes when you send invoices or review history.

Payments

How to track paid and unpaid invoices

Use the payments view when you want a quick summary of what has been billed, what has been collected, and what still needs follow-up.

Paid

The invoice is complete and the amount has been collected.

Pending or sent

The invoice has been issued, but the payment is still waiting.

Partially paid

Some money has been received, but a balance is still due.

Overdue

The due date passed and the invoice still needs attention.

CRM

Track relationships from lead to paid client

Open CRM to keep every lead and customer moving forward instead of getting lost in your inbox.

Pipelines and stages

Move deals through stages so you always know what is new, in progress, won, or stalled.

Contacts

Keep names, emails, and company details in one place. The same records power your saved clients for invoicing.

Follow-ups

Track the next step for each contact so nothing slips through after the first conversation.

Turn a lead into an invoice

When a deal is won, reuse the contact details to create an invoice in Invoice & Billing without retyping anything.

Rapid Books

Keep your books and tax records in order

Open Rapid Books for the accounting side of your business. Reports and exports are available on the Pro and Business plans.

Books and journals

Record income, expenses, and journal entries so your accounts stay accurate over time.

VAT / GST

Track tax on what you bill and what you spend, ready for your filing period.

Bank reconciliation

Match bank transactions against your records to catch anything missing or duplicated.

Receipt OCR

Scan a receipt and let Rapid Books read the details, so expense entry is faster (paid plans).

Reports and P&L

Review profit and loss, trial balance, and ledgers to understand how the business is doing.

Exports

Export ledgers and reports as CSV to share with your accountant or import elsewhere.

Hub Chat

Talk to your team without leaving Rapid Hub

Hub Chat is available on the Pro and Business plans. The Free plan is a solo workspace, so chat unlocks once you can invite teammates.

Channels

Organize conversations by topic or project. Pro includes up to 10 channels; Business is unlimited.

Direct messages

Message a teammate one-to-one for quick questions that do not need a channel.

Mentions

Use @mentions to pull the right person into a thread and get their attention.

Message history

Free workspaces keep 90 days of history. Pro and Business keep your full message history.

Rapid Notes

Capture quick notes and to-dos

Open Rapid Notes for the things you want to remember without opening a separate notes app.

Quick notes and sticky notes

Jot down a thought or pin a sticky note so it stays in front of you.

Checklists

Build simple to-do lists and tick items off as you finish them.

Reminders

Keep follow-up notes next to your billing and client work so nothing is forgotten.

Always one click away

Notes live in the same sidebar as the rest of Rapid Hub, so they are quick to reach.

Pro

Includes 2 GB of file storage for your workspace.

Business

Includes 10 GB of file storage for your workspace.

When storage is full

Integrations

Connect email, payments, and your Google account

Manage connections in Settings → Integrations. Email and payment integrations are available on the Pro and Business plans.

Email providers

Choose your default sender and connect Gmail or Zoho Mail so invoices and reminders go out from your own address.

Payment gateways

Connect Stripe or Razorpay, and keep payment links available so customers can pay online.

Google sign-in

Sign in with Google for faster, more secure access to your account.

Disconnect any time

You stay in control. Disconnect an integration from Settings whenever you want to stop using it.

Settings

Where to change how the app looks and works

Open Settings for everything behind your invoices and account.

Business profile

Update your company name, address, logo, and contact details so invoices show the right identity.

Branding

On paid plans, control how much platform branding appears on your invoices.

Integrations

Connect email and payment providers, and your Google account. See the Integrations section above.

Security

Change your password and manage Google sign-in to keep your account secure.

Team & permissions

Invite teammates and choose what each person can see or edit. See Team & roles below.

Billing & plan

Owners can review the plan, subscription, and usage from Billing.

Team & roles

Invite teammates and control what they can do

Owners and admins manage the team from Settings → Team & permissions. Team size depends on your plan: Free is solo (1), Pro allows 5, and Business allows 10, including the owner.

1. Invite a teammate

Go to Team & permissions and send an invite by email. The invite stays pending until they accept, and you can revoke it any time. Inviting teammates requires a paid plan.

2. Choose a role

Pick the role that fits how much control the person needs:

  • Owner — full control of the workspace, including billing and the plan.
  • Admin — full edit access to every app and can manage other members.
  • Member — access is set per app, so you decide exactly what they reach.
3. Set per-app access (members)

For members, set an access level on each app — Invoices, CRM, Reports, Payments, Rapid Books, and Settings:

  • No access — the app is hidden for that person.
  • View only — they can read but not change anything.
  • Can edit — full read and write access for that app.

Owners and admins always have full edit access, so per-app settings only apply to members.

Tips

Simple tips for a smoother workflow

Use a draft first

If you are not ready to send an invoice yet, save it as a draft and come back later.

Reuse templates and duplicates

If most invoices look similar, duplicate an existing one and edit only the parts that changed.

Check the totals before sending

Look at tax, discount, shipping, and payment terms one more time before you share the invoice.

Go to support if something feels off

When you are stuck, open Help & Support and send a message.
