Bottom line
An accepted roofing project receives a reviewed start window.
Best for
Retail roofing projects with named project and billing owners.
Use when
Use the documented timing (Before start; at approved milestones; only on verified weather exception; at reconciled completion; after final-balance rule) only while the recipient still needs this follow-up.
Watch for
Claims negotiation, unapproved changes, active property emergencies, or disputed closeout.
Step 1 · Immediately after the verified entry event
Job: An approved roofing project is approaching its current planned start window.

Step 2 · Relative to completion or non-completion of step 1

Step 5 · Relative to completion or non-completion of step 4
Job: A completed roofing project has a verified final balance.
Recipient state: A completed roofing project has a verified final balance.
Issue addressed: The owner may question whether all changes, credits, inspections, or prior payments are reflected.

Why it earns its place: Close the loop or route the unresolved case
SubjectFinal invoice {{invoice_number}} for {{project_number}}
Start after accepted scope and reviewed scheduling. Milestone and weather steps are event-driven, not fixed. Completion requires inspection and document reconciliation. Payment success suppresses the final reminder.
