Start with your clients and your most used line items. If Zoho Invoice lets you export your contacts and items, download them; if not, copy your regular customers by hand. Add your clients and saved items to Invoicefy, then set up your logo and payment options.
Send new invoices from Invoicefy, but let open Zoho Invoice invoices finish where they are, so clients don't get two bills. Once the last one is paid, download any records you want to keep and cancel your Zoho Invoice plan.
