I create an invoice for a partial payment (not a standard invoice but a deposit e.g. 25% of the total amount as first step of payment) from a commercial proposal.
When I receive the payment I set the invoice to “paid” but its status become “converter in discount” and not simpky “paid” as I expect.
Some can explain to me please?
Thanks
After entering a payment on a down payment invoice, just click on “convert it into discount” so you will be able to use it inside finale invoice.
The status should be “processed”, but this is a translation error. It should be “paid”.
I am sorry but I did not understood.
mmmm maybe I don’t get it… sorry. I’ll make an example that is very common situation for me.
I have a invoice to pay to a supplier of 10000 euros
We decide to split the payment in 3 parts: 25% at the order confirmation, 25% during a significant step of the job, 50% at the end of the job.
I prepare the commercial proposal for 10000 euros and I click on “create invoice”.
I select “partial invoice” and I specify 25% of the amount.
Doing this I create an invoice (Inv Nr 1) which I consider a partial payment of the total job.
When I receive the money I register the payment and so the payment should cover the just mentioned invoice Nr 1.
At this point I expect the the Invoce Nr 1 to be “paid” but, as I asked on my post, I found that as “converted as discount”.
Am I doing something wrong?
Many thanks for your support.
