NOTE: This article covers how to check for additional information about adjustments made to an invoice approved by a client. For information about reviewing rejected invoices with adjustments, click here.
To check for adjustments on approved invoices, log into CounselGO, select the client from the list, and go to the Approved/Paid tab from the invoices dashboard.
Any adjusted invoices are flagged with a red icon as shown in the image below. This applies if the amount was reduced as well as if the amount was increased by a SimpleLegal reviewer.
Click on the comment icon to see any additional information provided by the client, including the adjustment reason and other details (if applicable):
NOTE: The comment icon only appears from this view if the invoice total was adjusted.
The window that appears displays any additional information provided for the whole invoice. Click Close and then click on the invoice from the table to view its details page.
