Laskutettu

Laskutettu is a Finnish term used in business and accounting to describe a status related to invoicing. It is the past passive participle of the verb laskuttaa, meaning to invoice or bill. In practical use the word indicates that an invoice has been issued to a customer or that a charge has been billed, rather than implying that payment has been received.

The form functions as an adjective and can modify a noun in different grammatical cases and numbers, for example laskutettu hinta (billed price) or laskutettu summa (invoiced amount). Because it is a participle, its meaning centers on the action of invoicing rather than the completion of payment. Distinguishing terms include maksaa (to pay) and maksettu (paid), with laskutettu focusing on the invoicing step.

Usage and context: laskutettu is common in Finnish financial documents, accounting records, and billing communications. It helps to clarify the status of charges within accounts receivable and billing processes. The term is used independently or as part of larger phrases such as laskutuksen tilanne (the invoicing status) or laskutettujen tuotteiden määrä (the amount of invoiced products).

Related terms include lasku (invoice), laskutus (invoicing), and perintä (debt collection). Understanding laskutettu aids clear communication across invoicing workflows, financial reporting, and customer billing discussions.
