Write Off Amount Due on Invoice

Modified on Fri, 23 Sep 2022 at 03:02 PM

Using "write off" reduces the outstanding amount on an invoice by "writing off" part or all of the outstanding balance. You may want to write off a sum of money:

When the client says they are not going to pay and/or you consider the money un-recoverable.
When the amount outstanding is very small. For example, a client pays $45 instead of $46. Rather than chase the outstanding $1.00, you "write off" the amount and mark her invoice paid in full.

Note: 
After "Write Off," the balance owed is reduced to reflect the written-off amount.
The "Written Off" amount is displayed on the client's Orders & Invoices page.
The invoice is marked "Paid" if the write-off was the same as the Invoice amount due.
