Using the Draft Invoices Report


This report is used to check what Invoices are still sitting at Draft Status and haven't been paid, or emailed/sent to a Client or Third Party. When they are emailed, printed or otherwise given to Client or Third Party then the Invoice status should be changed to Awaiting Payment so that can not be accidentially changed. For detailed information on using the Filtering, Grouping and other manipulations of the views please refer to the linked articles.
