 1.2. Ensures that every service event (e.g., fueling, hangar rental, ground handling) is tracked, invoiced, and billed with minimal human intervention.
 1.3. Integrates aviation scheduling, job completion data, and billing systems to deliver automated invoicing in PDFs, emails, or via API to customers and accounting teams.
 1.4. Supports workflow compliance, traceability, reporting, and audit-readiness in regulated aviation service environments.
 1.5. Enables automators to streamline billing cycles, enhance financial transparency, and eliminate repetitive manual entry through intelligent automation triggers.
