Get invoice
One invoice with its lines, totals, sent state and payments.
MCP tool fiken_read → get_invoice
read
Returns one invoice with every line, net, VAT and gross, the balance still open, whether and how it was sent, the payments registered so far and any credit notes. Read it before register_invoice_payment so a short payment is registered as partial, and before create_reminder so a paid invoice is not chased.
Parameters
