How Does Importing Invoices in Open Status Work?

When importing invoices, you can choose to import them directly in Open status. This is useful when you are migrating historical invoices that were already issued in your previous system and should not remain as drafts in Zoho Books.

Once an invoice is imported in Open status, it is treated as an issued invoice and cannot be edited. Its status cannot be changed later by reimporting the same invoice. If you need to review or correct invoice details, import the invoices in Draft status first, verify the data, and then mark them as Open.
