Data Consistency: Make sure to use the same date reference when comparing data between different lists.
Note: For reliable accounting data, always use the invoice list.
Double Check: Before jumping to conclusions, double-check that the total you're looking at is based on the date frame you think it is.
Common Problems and Solutions
Issue: Inconsistent data between different lists Solution: Check that you are using the same date reference and applying filters correctly.
Problem: An order is paid, but not invoiced Solution: Paying for an order does not automatically result in it being invoiced. Check the invoice list to see if the order has been validated.
