Quick answer

Automate weekly and fortnightly pool clients
Pool servicing is the textbook case for recurring billing. Set up a recurring invoice for each regular client so the same service and price goes out automatically every week or fortnight — no rebuilding, no forgotten invoices. Add a one-off line for extra chemicals or repairs when needed.
