# Invoiced vs Paid

Invoicing is only half the job: you're not paid until the client pays. Invoiced vs Paid on the OrderEazi dashboard draws what you've invoiced and what's been paid against those invoices as two lines. A gap that keeps growing means clients are paying late.

### Before you start

You'll need the **Invoices vs Paid** permission, in the **Dashboard** permission group. Payments come from your accounting system, such as Xero, Sage One, QuickBooks Online, or Palladium, or from payments allocated in OrderEazi.

### What the chart shows

* **Invoiced:** The value of tax invoices, including VAT, less credit notes.
* **Allocated:** The payments allocated to those invoices.

There's one point for each invoice date. The chart covers invoices on projects created in the period you choose.

**Example:** You invoiced R200 000 last month, and clients have paid R150 000 of it. The **Invoiced** line ends at R200 000 and the **Allocated** line at R150 000. The R50 000 gap is what's still owed.
