Remove interest from future invoices

If you need to remove interest from all future invoices associated with the matter, or if you need to adjust how interest is applied to future invoices, follow these steps:

  1. Select Edit Matter.
  2. Select Late Payment.
  3. Select Not Applicable if you do not wish to apply interest to any invoices.
  4. You can use the % field to adjust the interest amount and use the Grace Period field to determine how long it will take for interest to be applied. 

Note: editing interest in matter settings will not affect existing invoices.
