I installed and had a play with MyClientBase. It allows you to set up client and item details and use those to create invoices which are stored in the DB, and then export them as PDFs, and then log payments against each invoice as they come in but that is about it. There's no automation or calendar/reminder functionality and if there was that would sell it to me. Unfortunately I found it to be far too simplistic to offer me much in the way of time saving or better organisation. On the upside, it is free and is continually being improved so maybe I will revisit it in future.

I may try and write some simply reminder / auto-invoice generation app. Ideally I want something to auto-generate the invoice on a specified frequency and email it to me so I can press the final button to send it after checking. PHP does PDF generation so I'm tempted to give it a go. It's writing all the code to create the forms and read/write the data into the DB that's putting me off. Perhaps I'll look for a solution that does the database/SQL code creation bit for me. If I get time!!!
