Invoice and order add-ons for Google Sheets, compared

Many add-ons turn a Google Sheet into an invoice maker. They differ in what happens around the invoice: orders, stock, payments and emails. Here is how to choose, and where DocMaster fits.

Pick by what you do every week

  • You send a few invoices a month: a simple invoice maker is enough.
  • You take orders and need the stock to stay right: choose an add-on that links the order, the invoice and the stock count.
  • You chase payments: look for part payments and reminders, not just a Paid tick.
  • You sell with GST or VAT: check the tax is worked out for you on every invoice.

Questions

Which Google Sheets invoice add-on is best?

It depends on what you need. If you only send a few invoices a month and want the simplest tool, a lightweight invoice maker is enough. If you also track orders, stock and payments, an add-on that does all of it in one place saves retyping.

Is DocMaster free?

DocMaster has a free plan with 30 orders and invoices a month. Plus and Pro raise the limits. See the pricing page for the current plans.

Do I need to move my data anywhere?

No. Orders, products and customers stay in your own Google Sheet, and invoices are saved as PDFs in your own Google Drive.
