Is there any way to mark an invoice as uncollectable? There’s one deadbeat I’ve given up collecting on and I want to clear the time out of the system.

Sorry to hear one of your clients is being a deadbeat. :(

At the present there’s really not a great way to mark an invoice as “uncollectable”. You could deal with this a few different ways I believe.

• Delete the invoice, then go delete each time entry associated with it (time consuming)
• Add a negative line item to the invoice to offset the balance
• Delete the client

Seth,

Thanks for your reply. I don’t want to delete the time or the client. “Bad debt” is direct write-off on my taxes and I need to keep a record of it. So the negative line item looks like the way to go for now. However, bad debt is a bookkeeping status in its own right so it would be good to have this available as an option and have it show up in reports as such.
