Update a Client Invoice with the KM payment amount

When a claim is paid by DVA, the payment for the kilometres travelled will be returned along with all the Benefit Paid information in the Medicare Claim History Report when the Check Status (All) button is clicked.

When this information is received and the Claim becomes ‘COMPLETE’, the related invoice is updated. The KM line item is updated with the kilometres benefit paid amount and the Grand Total for the Invoice and Paid amount are adjusted accordingly. This payment is logged into the Invoice History.
