The panel only appears once the subscription has created at least one invoice. The table lists each generated invoice with its external ID, status, amount, and send/charge date. Statuses are color-coded: void and uncollectible invoices show in red, overdue in orange, and others highlighted. If an invoice has no send date yet, the date shows as a dash. The table pages five invoices at a time, and clicking a row opens that invoice. Above the table, four metric cards summarize the invoices. Outstanding totals the amount and count of invoices that are still unpaid, partially paid, or overdue. Total Invoices totals the amount and count of every invoice generated. The two Avg Total cards estimate an average monthly and an average annual amount: they take the average value per generated invoice and scale it by how often the subscription bills (based on its interval), then by twelve for the annual figure. Because these figures are derived from the invoices already generated, they reflect history to date rather than a forecast, and they will look low for a brand-new subscription with only a few invoices. > **Where to find it:** Subscriptions > open a subscription > Invoices panel (table plus metric cards) ## Related guides * [See and browse your subscriptions (the Subscriptions page)](/revenue/subscriptions/see-and-browse-your-subscriptions-the-subscriptions-page.md) * [What the subscription page shows](/revenue/subscriptions/what-the-subscription-page-shows.md) * [Auto-charge vs manual billing on a subscription](/revenue/subscriptions/auto-charge-vs-manual-billing-on-a-subscription.md) * [Create a subscription for recurring invoices](/revenue/subscriptions/create-a-subscription-for-recurring-invoices.md) * [Do I need Stripe for recurring invoices?](/revenue/subscriptions/do-i-need-stripe-for-recurring-invoices.md) --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://learn.withessential.com/revenue/subscriptions/a-subscriptions-generated-invoices-and-metrics.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
