Welcome to FreshBooks! As a newly invited admin, we know your first priority is getting up and running quickly, so we've prepared this guide that shows you exactly what you need to know and do.
As an admin, you’ll be working with the business owner of the account on any aspect of managing the business when it comes to invoices, estimates, clients, expenses and more. You can also review financials and reports as needed.
FreshBooks, if you're not familiar with it already, is an online invoicing service that helps freelancers and small business owners save time, get paid faster and look professional.
