Accounting Overview

Within Accounting, you will be able to view Invoices, Payments, Adjustments, as well as Unbilled Activity. You can Add Payments and Adjustments from your Accounting as well.

Search a Client Name

When using the Search bar on the Accounting page to locate a client, you can either use the first name only (John), last name only (Smith), or combine the first & last names separated by an underscore (John_Smith) to return the desired results.

Note: Using a space to separate the first & last names will not return a result

Applying and Receiving Payments

Receiving a payment is acknowledging that a payment has been received from the client. When adding a payment, the funds will automatically be deducted from the client's outstanding totals.

Applying a payment allows you to keep track of payments against certain invoices. Applying a payment has no effect on the totals of a client's account, it only changes an invoice status from saying Unpaid to Paid.

Applying payments is the best way to run accurate accounting reports. The Invoice AR Aging, Payments Applied, Collections, and Invoice report all require payments to be applied to Invoices in order to show the proper totals. The totals from these reports are based on the invoice status.
