The status displayed in Corridor is the invoice status as reported to the firm and correlates to the invoice status in the matter management application. From the Corridor home page, select the firm from your list of law firms/vendors to open the Invoices: Status page. A manager can view the invoices submitted to your company for any vendor. A Read Only user must know the law firm/vendor name and invoice number to check the status of an invoice.

Corridor accepts LEDES 1998B, 1998BI/1998BI V2, and LEDES 2000 files or invoices manually entered in Corridor. A single LEDES file can contain multiple invoices; however, a manually created invoice will contain only one invoice for a single matter.

Search Options

The Invoice Number field allows you to search by invoice number.
The Invoice Date Range field allows you to search for all invoices within a certain invoice date range.
The Invoice Status allows you to search for invoices by status (All, Awaiting Submission, Import Error, In Process, Paid, Posted, Rejected, or Waiting for Import).
Clicking the Clear button removes all search options.

Notes:

If the client company is using a version of eCounsel prior to Version 8.2 and one of the invoices in the file is rejected, none of the invoices in the file will be accepted into eCounsel for approval routing. The entire LEDES file must be reviewed, corrected and resubmitted.
If the client company is using eCounsel Version 8.1 with the XML Importer Changes for Better Error Handling, Logging, and Recovery patch or eCounsel Version 8.2 or higher and one of the invoices is rejected, all other invoices in the same file that pass the audit rule validation will be accepted by eCounsel.
If the client company is using eCounsel Version 8.3 or higher, details concerning rejections may be accessed by clicking the right arrow next to an invoice submission.
If the client company is using a version of eCounsel prior to Version 8.8 and an invoice fails to import into eCounsel because it could not be processed, the status will be reported as Rejected.
