Scheduled: There is a direct debit payment scheduled to be initiated at a future date. A Scheduled invoice can still be Voided and the amount can be changed.
Submitted: The direct debit payment has been initiated with the customer’s bank. The invoice will stay in Submitted until the direct debit payment is confirmed and paid out to you.

If a direct debit payment fails (e.g. for insufficient funds on the customer account) then the invoice status will transition back to Scheduled and we will attempt to payment again.
