Write Off Amount Due on Invoice

Modified on Thu, 23 Nov, 2023 at 9:38 AM

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.

Info:
  • If a write off amount is entered that is greater than the total invoice amount, the following error message is displayed on screen "Invalid: Amount is greater than the total unpaid!."


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.
