Important things to note:

• Clear Books doesn't support the importing Credit Notes, so this export option isn't available when selecting the Clear Books export format in MIDAS.
• Clear Books won't import invoices where the total is zero. As such, any such invoices are excluded from CSV export file generated in MIDAS for Clear Books.
