Overview

EZ Invoice is a custom-built Excel add-in developed for a privately owned national utility construction company specializing in electric and telecommunications infrastructure.

The company managed complex field operations across multiple projects but lacked a structured system for translating completed field work into consistent, trackable invoices.

I designed EZ Invoice to streamline the full workflow — from field report data to customer-ready PDF invoice.


The Challenge

  • Field reports documenting completed work
  • Scope of Work (SOW) documents defining billable items
  • No centralized invoice tracking system
  • Inconsistent formatting and manual invoice creation
  • Risk of missed billable items

Revenue generation depended on accurate, timely invoicing — but the process lacked structure.


The Solution

I developed a fully integrated Excel add-in that:

  • Pulls structured data from field reports
  • Matches completed work to Scope of Work definitions
  • Calculates billable totals automatically
  • Generates formatted, customer-ready invoices
  • Exports final invoices to PDF

The add-in includes a custom, company-branded ribbon with embedded guidance and documentation to ensure consistent use across teams.


Key Features

  • Automated matching of field work to SOW pricing
  • Standardized invoice formatting
  • One-click PDF generation
  • Company-branded Excel ribbon interface
  • Built-in documentation and user guidance
  • Centralized tracking structure

Impact

  • Reduced invoice preparation time
  • Improved billing consistency
  • Decreased risk of missed revenue
  • Standardized documentation across projects
  • Increased operational clarity between field and finance teams

This project demonstrates how workflow automation can directly impact revenue operations — connecting field execution to financial systems through structured, user-friendly tooling.
