An invoice bills a sale; applied payments settle it.
Issue an invoice
- Open a credit sale and Issue invoice. A customer's page also lists each credit sale not yet invoiced with its own Issue invoice. Start in Invoices only for a bill that has no sale behind it, so the debt is not counted twice.
- Check customer, terms, product/grade/package, quantities and prices. + Add another item, Duplicate and optional notes extend the bill.
- Issue invoice, review date, lines and total, then confirm.
Nothing posts before confirmation. Paid cash sales do not need another invoice.
Send an invoice
Open the draft and Send invoice. It emails a customer with an address; otherwise it marks sent for you to deliver. Check the due date.
Download an invoice
After sending, Download invoice opens a printable copy to save as PDF or print.
Record a payment

- From Payments or an invoice, choose Record payment.
- Check direction, customer/supplier, amount, currency, method and date.
- Review applications to open invoices/expenses, oldest first. Change amounts as needed; remainder stays as partner credit.
- Add optional reference/internal note, Record payment, review and confirm.
Partial payments are allowed. Drafts restore on this device. Queued means recorded locally: do not submit again. Rejections keep details for correction. For uninvoiced credit sales, issue invoices first; unapplied credit does not settle those sales, and recording it requires acknowledgement.
Paid, partial, or unpaid

Status follows applied payments automatically: Unpaid, Partial or Paid.
Correcting a payment
Open the payment's correction workflow for a wrong amount or application. The original stays in Audit and balances reflect the correction.
