How to Send Invoice on WhatsApp from BUSY Accounting Software (Step-by-Step Guide)
Are you still exporting invoices from BUSY, saving them as PDFs, and manually sending them one by one on WhatsApp? You're not alone. Thousands of Indian businesses using BUSY Accounting Software face this daily struggle.
In this guide, I'll show you how to completely automate invoice delivery on WhatsApp – saving you hours every week and getting you paid faster.
The Problem: Manual Invoice Sending is Killing Your Productivity
Let's be honest about what happens in most businesses using BUSY:
The Current Manual Process
Why This Approach Fails
Time Waste: Each manual invoice takes 2-3 minutes. For a distributor sending 50 invoices daily, that's 2-3 hours wasted every single day.
Human Error: Wrong customer selected, invoice forgotten, or attachment missed. These mistakes cost money and damage relationships.
No Tracking: Did the customer receive the invoice? Did they open it? You have no idea until you follow up.
Delayed Payments: Invoices sent late or forgotten mean payments come late. Your cash flow suffers.
Unprofessional Image: In today's digital age, customers expect instant, professional communication. Manual forwarding looks outdated.
The Solution: Automated WhatsApp Invoice Delivery
Imagine this instead:
You create an invoice in BUSY, press "Save", and within seconds:
- Customer receives the invoice on WhatsApp
- You get a confirmation
- Customer can see delivery status
- Everything is tracked automatically
This is exactly what BusyNotify's WhatsApp Integration does for BUSY users.
How BUSY WhatsApp Integration Works
Step 1: Connect BusyNotify to Your BUSY Software
The setup is straightforward:
- Install the BusyNotify connector on your system
- Enter your WhatsApp Business API credentials
- Map your BUSY ledger contacts to WhatsApp numbers
- Configure invoice templates

Step 2: Configure Auto-Send Rules
You decide when invoices go out:
- Immediate: Send instantly when invoice is created
- Scheduled: Send at specific times (e.g., every evening at 6 PM)
- Batch: Group multiple invoices for the same customer
- Conditional: Send only for amounts above a threshold
Step 3: Customize Your Invoice Message
Add a professional touch:
- Your business name and logo

- Bank details for quick payment
- Thank you message
Step 4: Let Automation Take Over
Once configured, it runs automatically:
- Invoice created in BUSY → Instant WhatsApp delivery
- Delivery reports tracked in dashboard
- Failed deliveries flagged for retry
- Read receipts available for follow-up
