When the account has pending invoices, they are listed in a separate Pending grid above the approved invoices. This presentation lets you quickly distinguish between approved invoices that a customer has or will receive, and pending invoices that may change prior to billing.

There are two categories for pending invoices:
Unapproved - Pending invoices with a status of Unapproved exist in the system after billing runs and creates invoices, and the bill period has not yet been approved. The Pending time frame for these invoices is typically short (until the bill period is approved)
Preview - You can choose to generate a preview of the next invoice based on the current services and features on an account by clicking the Generate Preview button.

This helps you evaluate and compare anticipated invoice charges to a previous (billed) invoice. These invoices have a status of Preview, and will remain in the system until they are deleted in the course of an actual bill run.
When viewing the details for a pending invoice, a label indicates the Preview or Unapproved status as applicable.
