Receipts

Receipts are used to record payments from your customers. Depending on the payment method identified on the original invoice, you can record customer payments by credit card, cash or cheque. If you have opened a merchant account with Paya1, you can process credit card payments directly from the Receipts window.

You can also track debit card payments. Sage 50 Accounting can track many different payment methods to different accounts, which makes reconciling and day-end processing easier.

My customer wants to pay using a credit on their account

If your customer overpaid an earlier invoice, or you received a credit for a returned item or cancelled service, those funds are recorded in the Receipts window as a deposit. When you receive an overpayment from a customer, you can either apply it to another unpaid invoice or record it as a deposit and refund the excess amount.

I want to process a payment I've already received/receiving at the time of sale.

Use the Sales, Orders, and Quotes window to process both the invoice and the payment at the same time.
