c. Customising your Quickbooks integration view:


By default these are the various functions that you can use in this view:

1. Search box: You can use this to search for specific invoices by the invoice

                          number.

2. Filter by date: You can list all invoices with Invoice date during a particular 

                            time of the year. Once you enter the start and end date, click 

                            Apply to see the filtered results.

3. Total paid and: These two clickable boxes show the gross amount 

    Total unpaid      that’s been paid and the amount that is yet to be paid by your  

                              Lead or Contact till date via Quickbooks. On clicking these   

                              boxes, the list of all paid and unpaid invoices are listed 

                              Respectively.

4. Pinned Invoices: You can bookmark any important invoice for your quick 

                                reference by clicking the pin icon that’s seen to the left of every 

                                invoice. On choosing the Pinned Invoice view, you can list all 

                                these pinned invoices. You can use this more like a priority filter view.

 5. Saved views: A list of five saved views that helps you skim through a filtered  

                            set of invoices.

                                  to list three, five or ten records per page.

   

d. Interpreting the list of invoices:

  1. The following are the details that are available for each invoice—Invoice number, invoice date, invoice type, balance, total and status(paid or unpaid). This is filled or empty based on the data that’s seen in Quickbooks.

  2. Of the above mentioned details, Invoice number is clickable and takes you to your invoice’s detailed view in Quickbooks. 

  1. If any paid invoice is processed as part payments, i.e:payment done in installments, then a Payments link is visible next to the corresponding paid invoice status field. Hover over this link to know the date, amount and payment number of each of the installments. You can also see the number of installments that’s been paid from the status field.


       4. If you had enabled the notification checkbox from the Admin Settings, then for every new payment made(full or part payment), an clickable in-app notification with the invoice number and the corresponding lead’s or contact’s name appears.
