Managing & tracking payments

In this article you’ll learn how to view and handle billing documents,  including estimates, invoices, and received payments.

Understanding your payment summary status

To help keep your billing documents organized and manageable, the Payments menu is divided into four sections:

  • Billing and Invoicing
  • Auto-billing
  • Payments received
  • Estimates

The status summary at the top of each of these pages lets you easily view your current payment status.
Each summary displays the total amount and a breakdown according to categories relevant to that page’s billing item. Here is the summary status for Estimates, as an example:

You can click on each category to view the items and take further action.

For example, if you want to view all your overdue invoices, or resend them to your clients as a gentle reminder to make a payment, simply navigate to Payments > Billing & Invoicing and click the Overdue category in the summary bar, as shown in the image below.

Important: When you choose more than one filtering option, the list will display only those documents that fulfill all the filtering requirements.
