Why Reduce the active matter list by locating matters that are considered 'complete'

 

Overview:

After the Provider marks the engagement order as 'Work Complete' and they submit their final claim and invoice, the status of the engagement order on the matter will update to [INVOICE SUBMITTED].

You can find a matter (ready for closure) by following the steps below.
