What this feature does

Learn how recurring online billing differs from recurring invoices and when each model is appropriate. Britixo CRM keeps the result connected to the relevant customer, staff member and operational history where the feature supports those relationships. That connection is important for search, reporting, client portal visibility and future automation.

Step-by-step workflow

  1. Open Subscriptions.
  2. Identify the purpose of the screen and the records visible to your role.
  3. Use search, filters, status controls and record links to move from summary information to detail.
  4. Review related customers, ownership, dates, activity and financial information before taking action.
  5. Follow the linked task-specific articles for creation, configuration, sending, conversion or troubleshooting.
  6. Confirm every completed action through the resulting status, timeline, document or notification.
  7. Contact an administrator when a menu or action is unavailable rather than attempting to bypass permissions.
