Overdue invoice and has been terminated

[FPForum]

I have a few clients who have invoices that have been overdue for over a month now. The account is in terminated status so I am curious what some of you do in this situation. Since the account is terminated the file's are gone..The invoice is so past due I highly doubt the client will be paying.

 

Do you just delete the invoice or let it sit in Overdue Invoices pilling up?

 

Thanks

I'm sitting with the same problem, and in our Country we need to file every invoice issues for tax purposes. I still need to chat to my accountant about this, but have been thinking of canceling those invoices. So then they'll still be linked to the client / order, and you can see what the outstanding value was, but it's not in the list of outstanding invoices.

I have the same problem sometimes, but in the UK I use a debt collection agency. After the second overdue invoice we issue an additional charge and then after the third overdue invoice we issue a letter before action through our legal advisors (this costs 1 GBP), normally this works and we get paid. After that it is worth instruction court bailiffs, we do on larger plans, but our cheap plans,we justy blacklist the IP address and details of the bad payer.

Surely in your country you will have a similar system.
