Filter and Export Bills

In Clio Manage, you can filter your bills to find the ones you need, then export them in bulk as PDF or CSV files for your records or a client's. You can also generate a statement of account for one client or all clients to show payments and balances at a glance. This gives your firm a clear, exportable record of billing activity without opening each bill individually.

Tip: Download and print an individual bill. See Edit Bills.

Filter bills

Filter bills from the main Billing page or from a matter or contact's Bills subtab, by client, matter, originating attorney, responsible attorney, the date the bill was sent, the due or issue date range, overdue bills, bill type (trust funds or firm revenue), currency, or custom fields. Search by a bill's ID number in the Search by ID field.

Tip: Add or remove columns and sort by bill issue date or last sent date to find the most recent bills.

  1. Go to Billing, or the Bills subtab in a contact or matter.
  2. Select a bill status column: Draft, Pending approval, Unpaid, Paid, All bills, or Archive.
  3. Optional: Click Columns to show or hide specific columns on the table.
  4. Click Filters.
  5. Select your filter choices and click Apply filters.

 

Export bills

Export all generated bills, only bills with outstanding balances, or bills in specific states, and apply filters to narrow the results further.

  1. Go to Billing.
  2. Select Bills or Outstanding Balances.
  3. Optional: Select a bill state.
  4. Optional: Click Filters, choose your filters, and click Apply filters.
  5. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click Export.
  6. Select the export format and click Export.

 

Generate statements of account

A statement of account export shows bill invoice amounts, payments, and balances due on a client's account, including any interest, discounts, and credit notes applied to bills in the total calculation. The export excludes transactions unrelated to bill payments, such as amounts deposited into trust. Generate this export for all clients with approved bills, or for specific clients, and select filters such as date range, trust or operating balance, or bill theme.

Note: This export shows only bills that have been approved. It excludes bills in draft or pending approval.

  1. Go to Billing.
  2. Click the down arrow next to New bills and select New statements of account.
  3. Make the selections relevant to your export.
  4. Click Generate Statements of Account.

Tip: A bill theme can include a summarized statement of account on a bill invoice, so a client sees their total outstanding balance on their most recent bill. See Customize Bill Themes.
