Document & e-mail placeholders

The token vocabulary used in document texts, e-mail templates and repeating invoices.

Bizinly's document texts and e-mail templates share one placeholder vocabulary: [Like This], case-insensitive. A token Bizinly does not recognise is left exactly as typed, rather than silently disappearing — so a typo is visible instead of hidden.

Document and money

[Invoice Number] · [Invoice Total] · [Invoice Total Without Currency] · [Amount Due] · [Amount Due Without Currency] · [Due Date] · [Reference] · [Currency Code] · [Currency Symbol] · [Online Invoice Link] (the document's public, payable link)

Contact and company

[Contact Name] · [Contact First Name] · [Contact Last Name] · [Trading Name]

Repeating invoices — the billed period

Available wherever a repeating invoice's lines or notes are written, filled in fresh on every occurrence it creates:

[Month] · [Year] · [Month Year] · [Week] (ISO week number) · [Week Year] · [Current Month] (the month the invoice is actually created in, which can differ from the billed month) · [Month+N] / [Year+N] (for billing in advance, e.g. "Hosting — [Month+1]", N up to 99) · [Period Start] / [Period End] / [Period] (the billed date range, written out as a short date in the document's own language)

The e-mail subject and message for a repeating invoice additionally take [Interval] (for example, "Every 3 months").

Where these are used

  • Settings → Documents — header and footer texts.
  • Settings → E-mail templates — subject and message, per document type and language.
  • Repeating invoices — the schedule's own message settings, and every line/note on the invoices it generates.

A template's language decides which language its placeholders are filled in with — see Documents in your customer's language and Localization.
