    • Description: This color has a professional feel, making it suitable for invoices that are under examination.
  5. Disputed Invoices:

    • Description: This color is noticeable without being too aggressive, indicating that an issue needs resolution.
  6. Cancelled Invoices:
    • Color: Mauve ( #A76B9A )
    • Description: A softer tone that can denote that the invoice is no longer active.
  7. Future Invoices (for scheduled payments):

Implementation Tips:

  • Legends or Keys: Include a legend or key on your invoice tracking dashboard that explains what each color represents.
  • Visual Hierarchy: Ensure that color-coded sections are visually distinct to avoid confusion.
  • Consistent Use: Apply the colors consistently across all invoices for easy recognition.
  • Feedback Loop: Gather feedback from users to see if the color coding is effective and make adjustments as needed.
