If you do not use Sales Orders or Estimates, just make sure to add a line to the bottom of the invoice using the Customer Deposit item with a NEGATIVE for the amount of the original customer deposit. Now create the invoice and you will notice that the deposit from the sales order or estimate will appear and reduce the customer’s current balance due. If the terms or pricing have changed since the original creation, you may make these changes directly on the invoice. If you don’t use Estimates or Sales Orders, just create a new invoice.ħ. A window will pop up letting you know the customer has an outstanding Sales Order or Estimate – you must now select the Sales Order or Estimate to create your invoice from. When you are ready to collect the balance from the customer – open the “Create Invoices” window.Ħ. It is extremely important to finalize this process with the last step which involves invoicing the customer for the balance upon receipt of the products and services.

Create a Sales Receipt to the customer for the deposit amount, using the “Deposit Received” item this time as a positive number. (*if you do not have any information on the customer’s order, you can create an invoice later, just be sure to credit them for their deposit payment!)Ĥ. Create the customer’s complete order at the total price they will pay for products or services as an Estimate or Sales Order (if applicable!), entering each line item of products and services they have agreed to purchase at the agreed prices, and enter the final item “Deposit Received” as a negative number. Create an Item on your Item list – the item type “Other Charge” Called “Deposit Received” and map it to the “Customer Deposits Received” Liability Account.ģ. Create Current Liability Account on your Chart of Accounts called “Customer Deposits Received”.Ģ.
Here is the best way to deal with customer deposits:ġ. (See my blog article “Important unapplied payments check”.) This process wreaks havoc with your Accounts Receivable and can have serious consequences under-stating your income if not dealt with later.
