InvoiceChase: Automated AR Follow-up
InvoiceChase: Automated AR Follow-up ships as a ready-to-import n8n automation package: load the bundled workflow JSON, connect the credentials listed on this page, and activate it on self-hosted n8n or n8n Cloud.
Stop chasing invoices manually. Receive overdue events via webhook, score severity, send AI-written payment reminders, and escalate to the owner when clients go 30+ days past due.
- Classify invoices as mild, moderate, or severe based on configurable overdue-day thresholds
- Generate personalized AI payment reminder emails with GPT-4o-mini — no copy-paste required
- Send client reminders automatically via SMTP with invoice number and days-overdue in the subject
- Escalate 30+ day invoices to the business owner with a full-detail alert email
- Log every reminder and escalation action to a Google Sheets tracking tab for audit
- Drop in any webhook source — works with Stripe, QuickBooks, Xero, FreshBooks, or a custom trigger
- All thresholds and contact details live in a single Config node — update in one place
Setup Service — optional live install and test. Choose your tier at checkout (not tied to this template's price).
Paste the license key from your receipt. It must match this template.
Workflow summary
One workflow handles everything end-to-end.
- 1An overdue invoice event arrives via webhook — sent from your accounting system, Stripe, or any payment tool that supports webhooks
- 2A rules engine computes the escalation level (mild, moderate, or severe) based on how many days past due the invoice is
- 3For mild and moderate invoices, GPT-4o-mini drafts a professional, client-specific payment reminder email
- 4The reminder email is sent to the client via your SMTP email account with a subject line that includes the invoice number and days overdue
- 5For severe cases (30+ days overdue), the business owner receives an immediate escalation alert with full invoice details
- 6Every action — whether a reminder or an escalation — is logged as a row in your Google Sheets tracking tab for audit and follow-up
