Overview:

This screen serves as a list of all existing Accounts Receivable (AR) Invoices for your company. You can investigate using the Filter options, and create new invoices or credit notes. Workbench has several standard Charge Types, including Contract Claim, Input/Output Based, or Quoted. The documentation is split based on these since the process differs depending on the type.

Use the Value dropdown to select which type of currency to display. The Filter can be adjusted to look for a specific invoice, but shows the current active period's invoices by default.

• Type shows whether the line is an Invoice, Claim, or Credit (Inv, Clm, Cdt).
• Reference is generally the Invoice/Credit/RCTI/BCI number of the line. It also serves as a link to open the invoice details.
• Date is the invoice date for the document.
• Job is which Job the document is related to. It can include billing for subjobs as well.
• Title is the billing title, defaulting to the job description, but can be modified in Job Maintenance.
• Client is the client Company of the invoice.
• Status can be one of the following:
  • Entered means that it has been created, but not yet approved. It may or may not need additional data before being approved.
  • Approved means that an authorised approver has clicked approved for this document, indicating that it is ready to be sent to the client. It can be unapproved at any time and edited.
  • Sent means that the document was finalised and implies that the invoice was actually sent to the client. It can be unfinalised, but a copy of each sent invoice will be attached to the claim.
  • Updated means that the invoice has been exported with its batch to the financial software. The claim cannot be edited to retain consistency with the financial software.
  • Cancelled means that someone clicked cancel in the claim, removing all data but leaving a record of the cancelled claim.

• Value is the total monetary value of the document.

• Cdt. Incl. GST if the document contains credits, the tax-inclusive amount will appear here.
• Outstanding is the difference between the Incl. GST value and the Received value, indicating what has yet to come.
