The Generate Invoice button displays when changes are made to completed line items.
When changes are made to completed line items it can affect Revenue and the display of the invoices. Clicking the Generate Invoice button saves any pending changes fully and generates a new Invoice Version.
The Generate Invoice button is green to help draw attention to it. If the price is changed on completed line items, it is important to click the Generate Invoice button to save those adjustments.
Clicking the Generate Invoice button won't double-count revenue. It simply records any adjustments to revenue or completed line items on the day it's clicked.
You can view each change in the Invoice Versions section of your jobs. Each Invoice Version has its own invoice pdf that shows the prices, quantities, and notes for the Completed line items. Invoice versions generate either when line items are completed, or when adjustments are made to completed line items and the Generate Invoice is clicked.
Don't worry if you miss clicking the Generate Invoice button. To help ensure revenue adjustments and revenue dates are reported accurately, same-day pending adjustments will be automatically saved/generated overnight.
