What do the icons behind the services and invoices mean?

In timeSensor LEGAL there are a number of different icons that show you the status of the data record. You will find these icons in your timesheet, in the service overview of the dossier or in the list of open invoices. In the tables below you will find a list and explanation of the various icons, sorted by area.

timesheet

You can see the status of the respective service in your personal timesheet.

icon	meaning
	If there is no icon behind the service, then it has not yet been transferred to the dossier and can therefore still be changed in the timesheet.
	This service can be billed and was transferred to the corresponding dossier and can only be changed there. The service has not yet been billed.
	This service is in the corresponding dossier and has been charged
	This service was declared in the dossier as invoiced elsewhere (and therefore not charged)
	This service is not billable
	This service was marked as over-productive in the dossier. This means that more time is charged in the dossier than was written down in the timesheet.

Services in the dossier

By default, you will see fewer icons in the dossier than in the timesheet, as the main focus here is on billing. If you want to see the non-billable, otherwise billed or over-productive services, click on the small X next to "Init." at the top right.

icon	meaning
	If there is no icon behind the service, it is still open and billable
	These services are part of a partial invoice. This means that a copy of these services was billed via a partial invoice. The original service remains in the dossier with the green tick and will be settled later with the final invoice. Typically, the partial invoice is then balanced against the final invoice
	These services were charged in one invoice.

Invoices in the dossier

icon	meaning
	If there is no icon behind the invoice, it has not yet been finalized (unprinted or not archived). If you delete this invoice, the invoice number goes back into the pool and is reused.
	This invoice is printed/archived and open. Deleting this invoice will result in the loss of the invoice number.
	This bill is paid. This invoice cannot be deleted.

Open invoices

In the open invoices, the icons indicate the various stages of the dunning process. These icons can also be visible in the dossiers if an invoice is open.

icon	meaning
	Invoice has reached the first dunning level and can be dunned. This icon also appears when all other dunning levels have been reached.
	First reminder was created
	Second reminder was created
	Third reminder was created
	Invoice was dunned 3 times without success. Further steps can be taken.
	dunning stop
