Paid Pre-Invoices Applied to a Regular Invoice

After you apply a cash receipt to a pre-invoice, the fee portion of the paid pre-invoice is applied automatically to the next, regular (draft or final) invoice that you create for a project.

Example

1. Two pre-invoices were sent to a client — the first for $30,000 and the second for $10,000.
2. The client paid the pre-invoice for $30,000, and you entered a cash receipt for it.

   Pre-Invoice Number	Amount Type	Amount	Paid Amount
   1	Fee	$30,000	$30,000
   2	Fee	$10,000	$0
   			=======
   			$30,000

3. You prepare a regular invoice to send to the client. The fee amount of a new, regular invoice (without the paid pre-invoice fee amount applied) is $80,000.
4. The paid pre-invoice fee amount of $30,000 is applied to the regular invoice and reduces the fee amount for regular invoice to $50,000.

   Regular Invoice Number	Amount Type	Regular Invoice Gross Amount	Less Paid Pre-Invoice Amount	Regular Invoice Total
   1500	Fee	$80,000	$30,000	$50,000

5. The unpaid pre-invoice for $10,000 is canceled automatically.
