Invoices can be split evenly into multiple parts — whether for a payment instalment schedule or to divide costs between multiple payers. This article covers how to split invoices in itrvl.

Also known as: payment instalments, splitting payments, dividing invoices, multiple payers, payment schedule

Important to know before splitting

Splitting an invoice in itrvl divides the invoice amount evenly across however many parts you choose. It does not calculate per party group costs — if you need to charge different amounts to different payers, split the invoice first and then edit each resulting invoice individually to adjust the amounts.

How to split an invoice

  1. Open the booking in itrvl and go to the Payments tab.

  2. Locate the invoice you want to split — this can be either the deposit or balance invoice.

  3. Click Split on the relevant invoice.

Adjusting split invoices

Once split, each invoice can be edited individually. Click the pencil icon on any invoice to update:

  • Name — for example, Smith Party Deposit or Instalment 1 of 3

  • Amount — if the split does not need to be equal

  • Due date — to set a payment schedule

  • Notes — any information you want the client to see on the payment portal

Note: The payment link updates automatically when invoices are split or edited. You do not need to send the client a new link — they can refresh their existing payment portal to see the updated invoices.

Important: If the total across all split invoices no longer matches the selling price, the cost summary will show you are under or over invoiced. Always check the % invoiced indicator after splitting to confirm the total is correct.
