Action buttons

• Download as PDF — clicking this button downloads the invoice in PDF format.

• Write off — this button marks the invoice as fully paid. Write off is the unpaid part of the invoice that you are not going to pay in the future, so you may want to mark the invoice as fully paid by adding a write off.

E.g. you paid your vendor 1000 EUR but they got 990 EUR because of the bank charges, and for some reason, the vendor is not going to ask you to pay 10 EUR difference.

• Discount & Extra charge — you may add a discount and (or) an extra charge to the invoice by clicking this button.

• Update — clicking this button opens the Update vendor invoice page where you can edit the invoice.

• Delete — this button deletes the invoice. It disappears after you link the invoice with the payment.

Note: For invoices with linked payments only the "Download as PDF" and "Write off" buttons are available.

To make all buttons available, you need to unlink the payments first. It can be done on the page of the corresponding payment to the vendor.

Add and remove payables

So there is no need to delete an invoice if one of its items is wrong.

Note: Invoices with zero total amounts cannot be linked to payments.

In other words, if you delete all the payables within an invoice, you won't be able to create payments covering this invoice.

Create linked payment

If you have paid the invoice, you can record the payment by clicking "Create linked payment" button under the Payables table:

You can enter payment details into the fields that appear:

Alternatively, payments can be created on the Vendor payments page.

The difference is that on the invoice page you can enter a payment covering only an invoice itself, while on the Vendor payments page, you can enter a payment covering multiple invoices.

Back to the table of contents.

Additional files

You can also upload files to attach them to an invoice using the "Upload" button in the "Additional files" section:

Messages

In the Messages field you can communicate with a respective vendor (if they use the Vendor Portal and can log in to the system).

Enter your message and click the "Send" button:

A vendor will get an email when a message is sent to them.

The same applies to the responsible Invoice manager, they will get emails when a vendor sends a message.

You can read the message and reply straight from the email:

By clicking "Reply to this message", you will be redirected to the "Messages" field of the respective invoice.

Tip: If your vendor cannot log in to the system, you can use the "Messages" field as an option to leave notes or anything you need. But if you allow them to log in, all the messages will be visible for them.

You also can communicate with vendors on other objects. Please check the "Messages" page for more details.
