Study Notes
- Invoices move through different statuses from the time they’re created to when they’re paid.
- Draft invoices are still editable, but are not sent or paid.
- Open invoices and paid invoices are terminal, which means that they can never take on another status.
- Voided invoices are conceptually similar to deleting (canceling) an invoice, but maintain a paper trail.
- Uncollectible invoices are sometimes created when a customer is unlikely to pay an outstanding bill.
- You can mark an invoice as uncollectible, which allows you to track the amount owed for reporting purposes.
