Quick Job Payments in Pulse

Quick Jobs are for one-off work where you need to charge a client and deliver a file or link without creating a full project. The payment side still uses Pulse's normal billing flow, so your team does not have to reconcile a separate system.

Create the Quick Job

An admin creates a Quick Job with the client, title, amount, description, and delivery details. If a download link is attached, it can stay locked until the job is ready to release.

Payment item is created

Pulse creates a payment item for the Quick Job. If PayFast is configured, the client can pay online from the Payments page. The payment item appears alongside other payment items, so the client does not need a separate payment area just for Quick Jobs.

Client pays

The client opens Payments, finds the Quick Job item, and pays through the available payment link. If the payment is received outside PayFast, an admin can record it manually just like any other payment.

Quick Job status updates

When payment is confirmed, the Quick Job can move into the paid part of the workflow. Your team can then unlock the download when the files are ready for release.

Delivery stays controlled

Payment does not have to mean instant delivery. If your team still needs to review or upload final files, keep the download locked until you are ready. Once unlocked, the client can access the delivery link and Pulse can track the download activity.

When to use Quick Jobs instead of Projects

• Use Quick Jobs for once-off, clearly scoped paid work.
• Use Projects when work has milestones, team collaboration, repeated updates, or a longer delivery process.
• Use a normal invoice when you only need billing and do not need a Quick Job delivery record.
