Receivables from client

This is the summary of how much your client will pay you.

You can add a receivable by pressing the "New receivable" button and choosing the receivable type:

• "Flat rate"—if you just need to enter the amount of a receivable without entering volumes and rates.

• "Unit based"—if you have to enter the volume and rate for calculating the price.

• "CAT log based"—if you have fuzzy matches logs generated by CAT tools and want to calculate discounts for each type of match.

It will open the New receivable page (the data type to fill in will be displayed in accordance with the type of receivable you've selected):

Entered receivables can be edited, cloned, and deleted by pressing the corresponding buttons:

Note: If the receivable has been already invoiced, you cannot delete it without deleting the invoice first. Or you can unlink the receivables from the invoice.

To do so, select the receivables you need to invoice and press "Invoice selected":
