The written steps below already work. Come back to watch it.

Why is an invoice in Draft and how do I approve it. The nightly run (and the late-fee engine) creates a Draft instead of an Open invoice when any of these is true:

The steps, written out

  1. Open the invoice from the Draft tab of Invoices.
  2. Check the lines. Add the PO number on the agreement if it was missing.
  3. Press Approve & send. The invoice becomes Open, is posted to the ledger and emailed.

Tip

Drafts are not chased by dunning and do not count as receivables until approved.
