Actionstep offers a set of merge fields to display details for outstanding invoices. For any invoice with an amount still owing, the amount paid, balance due, invoices date, invoice reference, and invoice total can be displayed. This is helpful for conveying to clients, the specific amounts they can pay for specific invoices.
