See what happened to a quote or invoice
Check when a quote or invoice was sent, opened, viewed, approved or paid, stop a send that has not gone out yet, and look back at earlier saved versions.
In the sidebar, open Sales & Billing, then Quotes or Invoices, and open one from the list. Its own page shows the document; the history opens in a panel whose page address ends in /activity, or /history for saved versions.
Steps
- Open the actions menu (the three dots at the top), press See more, and choose Activity. The Manage panel opens at its first section.
- Read the section's heading. It starts with Status and says where the document is now.
- Read the row of chips under it. Each is a step the document has reached, such as sent, opened, viewed, approved or paid. Press View activity details for every step with its date and time.
- Look under Queued deliveries. An email or text that has not gone out yet is listed with who it is for. Press Cancel queued delivery to stop it; the record of it is kept.
- Press History under the timeline, or scroll to Saved history and versions, to see each saved edit and each earlier version. Press View on a version to open it as it was.
- Choose Hide activity from the actions menu, or close the panel, to return to the document.
What you see
- Under the timeline, Open sharing (on a quote) or Open delivery (on an invoice) opens the send screen. On an invoice with a balance, a payment button opens the payment window.
- Record overview shows Balance due (invoices) or Document total (quotes), Delivery, Version and Edit policy, which says whether the document can still be changed in place.
- On an invoice, Status notes under the header give short reminders, such as the customer having viewed an invoice that is still unpaid.
- Further down the document's own page, Quote checklists or Invoice checklists hold any review or closeout checklists run on it.
If something looks different
- Queued deliveries reads No queued deliveries.: everything you sent has already gone out, or nothing was sent. Cancel queued delivery only shows when your role can cancel sends.
- Saved history and versions is empty: nothing has been saved since the document was created.
- The timeline says the quote or invoice is still a draft: nothing has been sent yet. See Send a quote or Create an invoice.
- The customer says they never got it: check the chips for a failed send, then send it again from Open delivery or Open sharing.
