| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Draft | Created but not issued yet |
| Issued | Active, no payment received yet |
| Part Paid | Some payment received, balance remaining |
| Paid | Fully settled, balance is zero |
| Overdue | Due date passed with a balance still owing (set automatically overnight) |
| Cancelled | Voided — only possible if no payment has ever been made against it |
⚠️ Note — Invoices are never deleted once payment has touched them. They're cancelled/reversed instead, to keep a clean audit trail. This is also why you can't edit an Active fee structure directly — archive it and create a new one instead (see A Deleted Record Seems to Be Missing — Is It Gone Forever?).
