How to Create Custom Views in Invoices, Payments, Appointments, and Quotes Page
In this article, we will walk you through how to create and save custom views across these sections, explain what filters are available, and provide real examples your clinic can use to get started. These views can be reused at any time, making it easier to track key metrics, monitor financial activity, and quickly access the information that matters most to your clinic.

Invoices
Step 1: Navigate to Invoices
Log in to your Pabau account, and from the left sidebar menu, click on ''Money'', then select ''Invoices'' to open the Invoices page.
Step 2: Access the ''Add new view'' panel
Once you're on the Invoices page, click the “Filter by” button and select “Add New View” to create a custom view.
Step 3: Create a new view
Once the ''View panel'' opens, you can start defining the filters that will control what appears in your custom view. These conditions let you narrow down the invoice list to show only the records that match your criteria - helping you focus on the data that matters most to your clinic.
How the Conditions Work
The panel gives you two main filtering sections:
-
“Show invoices that match ALL of these conditions”
Use this section to apply strict filters. Invoices must meet every condition added here to appear in the view. -
“And match ANY of these conditions”
This section is for more flexible filters. Invoices only need to meet one or more of the conditions here to be included.
Each condition consists of a few parts:
-
First, select whether you want to filter by Invoice or Client data.
-
Next, choose the specific field you want to filter (e.g., invoice date, payment status, client source, location, etc.).
-
Depending on the field, you’ll then choose how to match it — for example, selecting a date range, entering a keyword, or picking from a dropdown list of values.
You can add multiple filters in either section and combine invoice and client conditions together for more advanced filtering.
Setup Options
At the bottom of the panel:
-
View Name - Give your view a clear, descriptive name so it's easy to recognize later.
-
Visibility - Choose if the view should be:
private - visible only to you
public - visible to your team
-
Preview - Click this to see how many invoices currently match your filters.
-
Save - Once you're happy with your setup, click ''Save'' to make your view available for reuse at any time.
