Invoice statuses and what each one means
Every invoice carries a status that tells you where it is in its life. Draft means it's still being built and hasn't been sent or finalized - you can freely edit it, and it has no invoice number yet (the number is assigned when it leaves Draft). Unpaid means it has been finalized or sent to the customer and a payment is owed.
Overdue is an unpaid invoice that has passed its due date; it's the same money owed, just past the deadline. Partially Paid means at least one payment has landed but a balance still remains (note that a past-due partial reads as Overdue, since Overdue takes precedence).
Payment Processing means a payment is in flight - typically a bank transfer that can take a few days to clear - and the invoice can't be edited or re-charged until it settles. Paid means the full balance has been collected.
Void means the invoice was canceled before any money was collected; it's no longer visible to the customer. Uncollectible means you've written off the remaining balance as something you don't expect to collect.
Void and Uncollectible appear in red, Overdue in amber, and the rest as a neutral highlight. The status drives which actions are available - for example, you can only edit a Draft, and you can only Void or Revert to Draft before any payment has been collected.
Where to find it: Open any invoice. The colored status pill sits next to the "Invoice" heading at the top of the page, and the same status shows in the Status column of your invoice list.
