# Exclude future invoices from your customer portals

> Hide invoices with future issue dates from customer portals and email reminders in Upflow until they become due to avoid premature payment requests.

When you issue invoices with an issue date in the future, they will be displayed in your customer portal if synced into Upflow. But you might not want for them to access it before it's time.

## Exclude future invoices

From your Upflow [Settings, Customer portal](https://app.upflow.io/organization/-/settings/customer-portal) section, enable the following option:

And click Save at the bottom!

These invoices will still be present in your Invoice list view and the customer's invoices, but won't be visible to them in their collection reminders or their customer portal until their issue date is met.

This customer has 7 open invoices in Upflow:
