When is a Billable Charge Ready to Bill?

A Billable Charge becomes Ready to Bill in the following ways:

  • Manually-entered Billable Charges are set to Ready to Bill by default.
  • Billable Charges in the Invoicing status become "Ready to Bill" when an Invoice Statement is deleted prior to finalization.
  • This will also mark the original transaction as "Ready to Bill."
  • Billable Charges in the Needs Review status become "Ready to Bill" when a user marks them as ready to bill.
  • Billable Charges in the Not Ready to Bill status become "Ready to Bill" when a user marks them as ready to bill.

Steps

  1. Navigate to the Billable Charges list.
  2. Locate the billable charge you would like to mark as ready.
    • Only billable charges in Needs Review or Not Ready to Bill are eligible.
    • You can use the Status filter to narrow your selection.
  3. Open the desired billable charge by selecting Binoculars.
  4. With the billable charge slideout open, select Actions > Mark as Ready.
  5. If prompted, in the Override Bill Status? popup, provide an Override Reason and select Override.
