Invoice Statuses

Invoice Status

Abstract

An Invoice has a life cycle, from initial raising, to populating and then marking as ready, to sending to the client, to the receipt of payment (full or partial).
The status icon follows the standard methodology in the system but has some specific additional states to help visually identify at what point the invoice is in its life cycle

Status Colour	Meaning
	Invoice has been raised.
	Invoice has been populated and marked as ready. (All billable charges that are to be included on the invoice have been added, and it is ready to be sent to the client)
	Invoice has been marked as sent. (The invoice has been sent to the client, and is now locked down - i.e. none of the billable charges can be added to, or amended on the invoice)
	Invoice has been partially paid (One or more payments have been received in respect of the invoice, but do not fully satisfy the invoice total. That is, the balance outstanding on the invoice is greater than zero)
	Invoice has been fully paid (The payment(s) received against the invoice satisfy the invoice total. That is, the balance outstanding is zero)
