Invoice Life Cycle
A new invoice progresses through a set of stages before it gets closed. The stages that we use in our service to identify the status of an invoice are -
- Draft
- Open
- Overdue
- Closed
The progress of an invoice from one stage to another need not necessarily be sequential; meaning invoices can jump stages without following a fixed pattern.
