What is an "Adjustment" in AR Automation?

Adjustments are generated automatically for paid invoices where the invoice balance was $0, but once again has a balance in the accounting/ERP system.

Adjustments occur most commonly when a customer is refunded, the invoice balance was zero but now has a balance again after the refund.

AR Automation will always show whatever the balance reported from the accounting system.

How do I control the day and time that an automatic communication is sent?

Automated workflows can sometimes send messages at less-than-ideal times. Control when your communication is sent by setting your Delivery Windows.
A delivery window is a time period when automatic communication can be sent by AR Automation. Delivery windows do not have any impact on communication sent manually through AR Automation.

Set your delivery windows under Settings > Preferences > the Communication tab.

Simply select the days you would like communication to be sent, then choose the start and end times for sending communication. Time is in 24hr format (for example, 13:00 is 1:00pm). From is the first hour during which communication can be sent and To is the last hour communication can be sent.
