Register an invoice payment in the cash journal

We need the cash journal, which is located under Accounting > Journal

In order to register the payment on the correct invoice, we need to change the cash journal from a financial voucher to a customer payment.

To do this, follow those steps:

• Click on the arrow next to J > select Customer payment
• Select date
• Enter a description
• Select the invoice for which you have received payment (the full amount of the invoice is automatically put in credit)
• Select counter account - typically bank or cash
• Click on Approve all

Your invoice :

• Will go from unpaid to paid and the money will be deposited in the bank
• Will be registered as paid in the Invoices tab (under Sales)
