The Invoice Entry system is designed to enable Plan Managers to quickly enter, edit and clone a Service Provider Invoice within Careview for claiming.
The Service Entry screen displays a list of all of the Invoices that you have created, excluding Provider Paid by default. These records will contain one or more Delivered Services, which are used by the Careview bulk NDIS .CSV creation process. Each time you create an Invoice in Careview it will be given a unique reference number, e.g., NDIS-0000000050.

Screen Filters

There are restrictions in place, where you choose to filter by Date Range only in the Service Entry screen. You will only be able to view 6 months of data at a time, where you are entering a date range only.
Where you enter either a Client Name and/or Service Provider the restriction is not applied on the Date Range Filter.
The screen can be filtered using a combination of the following:
- Client Name
- Invoice Number
- Status
- Service Provider
- From and To Dates
- Exclude or Include Provider Paid Invoices
- Exclude or Include Our Paid Invoices
- Exclude or Include Streamline Automated Invoices
- View By Batch
- Show On Hold Invoices Only
- Select On Hold Reasons
Your customised filters and view selections will persist on the browser until being changed. For example, if you filter by a specific Client and then edit an Invoice, when you close the Invoice the Service Entry screen will still be filtered by the selected Client.
'From and To Dates': The invoices list will exclude any invoices which were not created during the date range beginnnig with the day selected in the 'From' field, and ending with the day selected in the 'To' field.
Use the Clear Filter button to clear any preset Filters selected.
