Hi,
I was hoping to get advise on how to handle deposits (ie upfront payment
towards the eventful total fee). I thought initially maybe they should go down
as credit notes and then use that credit note towards the final invoice, but
the doc description of a credit note didn’t sound correct. If the job costs
$1,000 and I needed 50% upfront, then I do actually have $500 in my checking
account.
Any help here would be great.
Many thanks,
Oliver
When a person gets to figure it out for themselves, they remember better.
You are asking "How do I do this using gnucash?" Well first describe to
yourself how you would be doing this in the old days, pen and ink on
paper. What your initial invoice to the customer would look like, how
you would record that the customer then paid you a 50% deposit on the
full amount (a partial payment of the full amount). Then all you need
to worry about is how to do that using gnucash rather than pen and ink
on paper.
BUT -- if you can't describe to yourself how you would have been doing
ti pen and ink on paper then your problem is not "How do I do this using
gnucash?" but "How do I do this?" (whatever you were using).
