### The billing section in your Control Panel

#### View and manage bills

To view your invoices, open the My bills
 page.
![Billing](/images/assets/screens/control-panel/product-selection/right-menu/my-bills.png)
You will then land on a page summarising your bills:

![Bill summary](/images/account-and-service-management/managing-billing-payments-and-services/invoice-management/billing_section.png)
:::info
If an invoice is pending payment (`Unpaid` status), the amount due will be shown in red in the `Balance` column.

:::

On each row of the table, you will see the following information:

- The invoice <code className="action">Reference</code>
- The <code className="action">Order Number</code>
- The <code className="action">Issue Date</code>
- Its <code className="action">Amount ex. VAT</code>
- Its <code className="action">Amount incl. VAT</code>
- The <code className="action">Balance</code> to be settled
- The invoice <code className="action">Status</code> (`Unpaid` or `Paid`)

By clicking on one of the `...
` buttons to the right of the table, you can also access these functions:
- <code className="action">See HTML version</code>: The bill opens in a new tab in your browser.
- <code className="action">See PDF version</code>: A downloadable PDF version of your invoice will be generated automatically.

![Actions for bills](/images/account-and-service-management/managing-billing-payments-and-services/invoice-management/actions_choices.png)
:::info
If one of your bills is awaiting payment, a `Pay balance immediately
` button will also appear by clicking on `...
`.
:::

##### **Filters**

Several filters are available:

![Sort filters](/images/account-and-service-management/managing-billing-payments-and-services/invoice-management/sort_filters.png)
To find a specific invoice, you can enter its reference, the associated order number or its issue date.

##### **Batch actions**

Using the `Batch actions
` menu, you can export your invoice summary in _.csv_
 or _.pdf_
 format. The files created will show their amount, reference and issue date.
If you want to export all of your invoices, use the `Export all as CSV
` or `Export all as PDF
` button.
![export_all](/images/account-and-service-management/managing-billing-payments-and-services/invoice-management/export_all.png)
If you want to export only selected invoices, use the corresponding check boxes in the first column of the table to select the invoices you want to export. Two new actions, `Export selection in CSV format
` and `Export selection in PDF format
`, will then be available in the `Batch actions
`.
![export_selection](/images/account-and-service-management/managing-billing-payments-and-services/invoice-management/export_selection.png)
#### Pay your bills [](#)
To pay bills that are awaiting payment, simply click on the `Batch actions
` menu, then select `Pay balance immediately
`.
![Pay a due amount](/images/account-and-service-management/managing-billing-payments-and-services/invoice-management/pay_debt.png)
A [settlement purchase order](/en/guides/account-and-service-management/managing-billing-payments-and-services/ovh-orders.md#purchase-order) will then be created. Once the payment has been made, your account will be balanced again.

#### Request invoice cancellation

:::info
To request that your service be cancelled on the expiry date, follow the instructions in [this guide](/en/guides/account-and-service-management/managing-billing-payments-and-services/how-to-cancel-services.md).

:::

If you have received an invoice that you do not consider to be legitimate and you wish to request a refund, or submit your claim, click on your name in the top right-hand corner of your screen, then on `Create a ticket
`.
### Track your payments

You can find the payment history in `My bills
` if you click on the `Payment tracking
` tab. You can then link each invoice to the associated payment.
![Track payments](/images/account-and-service-management/managing-billing-payments-and-services/invoice-management/payment_tracking.png)
In this section, you can also export your payment receipts in _.csv_
 format, by clicking on `Export in CSV format
` (1). You can also use several filters via the `Filter
` button (2).
:::info
If you notice a discrepancy between a payment and the total amount listed on a bill, it means that an account balance automatically reduced the amount debited.
