Receive Payment Directly from a Billing

Customer payments can be received directly from a specific billing or from multiple billings. Payments can be received as credit cards or checks. If receiving a credit card payment, an account with Stripe must first be set up and a credit card must be on file for that customer.

Receive a payment directly from a billing

1. Open the customer account and select the Billing that you will receive payment from.
2. Click the Receive Payment button.
3. Select Check or Credit Card. If selecting credit card, you must be connected to Stripe and have a credit card on file. Click here to learn how to Connect to Stripe.
4. Verify the bank account, enter the related information, and click Receive Payment. This will create a cash receipt and apply it to the billing. A bank deposit can then be created for this and other cash receipts.

Receive payments for multiple billings

1. Navigate to Accounting Home and under Cash In, click Billings (Customer Invoices).
   
   
2. Select a list view. It is recommended to only receive payments against posted billings, but payments can be received against any posting status.
   
   
3. Select the billings that you want to receive payments against.
   
   
4. Click the Receive Payment button.
