Fixed Bid Invoicing

Fixed Bid Invoicing

Sometimes software projects are negotiated as fixed bids, meaning the actual hours logged are not relevant for invoicing purposes. Under this scenario, you bill your client in installments (not hours), normally linked to milestones or dates.

It'd be really helpful you could add the following improvements:
-Add a new billing method to projects that could be called: "Fixed Bid" or "Based on a Fixed Amount"
-When creating an invoice for a project that has that billing method, the form would require user to enter an amount, thus; the invoice wouldn't show hours but a single line for the project with a single amount.
-The billable / non-billable and/or approved / not approved hours, are merely for information, stats, tracking, etc. 


It'd be even better if you could include in the project's dashboard a new indicator to show "billed / budget" amounts comparison
