Study Notes
- An invoice goes through five statuses: draft, open, paid, voided, and uncollectible.
- Draft invoices are still editable, but are unsent.
- When a customer pays for an invoice, the invoice moves into the paid status.
- Voided invoices are conceptually similar to deleting (canceling) them, but maintain a paper trail.
- Uncollectible invoices are sometimes in this state.
- You can mark an invoice as paid, void, or uncollectible.
- You can delete a draft invoice at any time.
