invoice_correction_email
Generate a professional email to correct a previously sent invoice, with a brief apology, instruction to disregard the original, and clear corrected details.
Instructions
Write the professional email to send a client when you need to correct an invoice you already sent — wrong amount, wrong line item, wrong date, or a missing item. Brief apology (one line — not grovelling), clear instruction to disregard the original, and the corrected details. Gets this right where most freelancers fumble: either they don't send anything (client pays the wrong amount) or they send a confusing email that makes the situation worse. Distinct from invoice_dispute_response_email (the client disputes your invoice — this is when YOU caught the error) and invoice_cover_email (first send of a new invoice). Does not count against your monthly draft limit. Required: client_name, original_invoice_number, corrected_invoice_number, correction_description (e.g. 'the total was listed as $1,200 instead of $1,450 due to a line item error'). Optional: correct_amount, project_name, payment_due_date, payment_link, your_name.
Input Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| client_name | Yes | Client's first name or full name | |
| original_invoice_number | Yes | The reference number of the incorrect invoice to disregard (e.g. 'INV-041') | |
| corrected_invoice_number | Yes | The reference number of the corrected invoice (e.g. 'INV-041-R', 'INV-042') | |
| correction_description | Yes | What was wrong and what it has been corrected to — be specific (e.g. 'the subtotal was listed as $1,200 instead of $1,450 — one line item was missing', 'the due date was listed as June 10 instead of June 20') | |
| correct_amount | No | The correct final amount (e.g. '$1,450', '£2,800'). Including this removes ambiguity about what the client should pay. | |
| project_name | No | Project name for context (e.g. 'the Brand Refresh project') | |
| payment_due_date | No | When payment is due on the corrected invoice (e.g. 'June 25', '30 days from today') | |
