Creating a Payment Link:
Create Payment Link option. This feature allows you to generate a payment link automatically within Bitrix, as opposed to sourcing it externally.
Once set up, a deal gets created and you can attach relevant contacts and products to it.As the deal progresses, the payment link becomes active. This link can then be sent to the customer through various mediums, such as TwiSMS.
Automating Customer Communication:
Within Automation Rule, you can set up customer communication, as we’ve discussed in previous videos. There are several modes available for sending notifications: SMS, WhatsApp, Facebook, and Email. For this guide, we’re focusing on SMS.Ensure the TwiSMS is set to execute after the robot that creates the payment link. You can integrate with TwiSMS (available in the Bitrix market) for efficient SMS delivery.
Notifications for Deal Progression:
If you move a deal to a certain stage, such as Progress, an SMS can be sent automatically to the customer. It’s possible to create a trigger notifying managers once a payment is made. This saves time from having to check each deal individually. Methods of notification can vary from SMS, Email, Direct Chat, and more.
Handling Invoices:
Invoices are different from payment links. You can create stages like Invoice Paid to monitor invoice progression. Let’s say you have an accountant who only views invoices. With Bitrix, you can integrate with your bank, so payments are tracked and updated in real-time.Additionally, when a client makes a payment, both the invoice and deal stage get updated simultaneously. You can also set up notifications for this. The Get Payment Information robot can be useful for extracting relevant payment details.
Generating Invoices Based on Deals:
With automation rules, Bitrix24 allows the creation of invoices directly from existing deals. Once an invoice is created, similar automation can be applied. For instance, generating documents and sending them back to the deal or directly from the invoice.

Bitrix24 offers robots like Modify Details and Get Details Values, which function similarly to ones discussed in our paperwork video.
