In WorkBook an invoice is created via the jobs module. The invoice type **elimination of partial invoice** is only available on jobs that contain partial invoices. It is used when you need to reverse the revenue previously recognized by a partial invoice. Essentially, it’s a credit note for partial invoices.

Often financial teams will be involved in the elimination of a partial invoice.

## FINALISE INVOICE

The elimination invoice can now be finalised and sent to the client. By finalizing, an invoice number is assigned and the approval status cannot be changed.

The user or role responsible for invoice finalization will depend on your agency process, e.g. this function may be restricted to finance only, or in some cases, this may be the responsibility of the job’s project manager. Check with your system administrator if unsure of your process.

- Go to the **header** tab
- Click the **finalise invoice** button
- WorkBook will raise a question to confirm the action.
- Click **Yes** to continue.

- Once the invoice is finalized, it will be given an **invoice number**
- And the **invoice status** will automatically change to **“invoiced”**
