Overview
The Invoice Search page has been redesigned to provide a more streamlined and flexible way to find, review, and manage invoices.
With both basic and advanced search options, you can quickly locate invoices using a variety of criteria such as patient details, dates, status, and practitioner. The updated layout also makes it easier to view invoice details and take action directly from the results page.
The page is optimized for desktop, tablet, and mobile, providing a consistent experience across devices.
Use the Take a Tour option within the page to walk through the updated layout and features.

Date Range Filtering

- Select a range and the invoices will populate below based on your chosen criteria
Your selected date range is saved based on the user and will remain the same when you return to the page.
Custom Search (Advanced Search)
Expand advanced filters (Custom Search) to refine your results
Available filters include:
- Date Type (Appointment Date or Invoice Date)
- Status (All, All - except Void, Receivable, Paid, Rejected, Void)
- Practitioner
- Third Party (Payor)
- Group
- Clinic/Branch
- Print Batch
When filters are applied using Custom Search, a “(Filtered)” label will appear next to the invoice results counter to indicate that the current results reflect those filters.
Use the lock icon to keep a selected filter in place for future searches. This is helpful if you frequently search using the same criteria (for example, a specific branch).
You can also configure Advanced Search to remain open by default:
- Go to Settings
