← All help topics

Steps

  1. Open Receipt for money coming in, or Payment for money going out.
  2. Check the date and choose the party. What they owe is shown beside the amount.
  3. Enter the amount. Save becomes available once a party and an amount are both in.
  4. Choose where the money went: Cash, or one of your bank accounts.
  5. For a bank payment you can add a reference, such as the UPI number. Press Save.

Send a receipt to the customer

  1. Open Day Book and press the receipt. It opens that receipt.
  2. Press Share (Share receipt on the phone) and create the link.
  3. Copy the link, or press WhatsApp to open a message to the party with the link in it. They can open it without signing in.

Good to know

  • A receipt lowers what the party owes you. A payment lowers what you owe them.
  • Add your bank accounts under Bank Accounts so they appear as choices here.
  • Only a receipt can be shared, not a payment.
  • A receipt link shows the amount, the date and "Cash" or "Bank". It never shows the name of your bank account or the party's balance.
  • Withdraw link stops a link working if it reached the wrong person.
  • A receipt taken on a bill shows which bill it is against, and its party cannot be changed.
