How to Pay an Invoice

Learn how to find a Customer's invoice and post a credit card, ACH, cash, or check payment

Written by Serena Edwards

When you need to collect a payment from a Customer, always pay an existing Invoice rather than logging a standalone payment. If you do post a payment that isn't tied to an Invoice, Enrollsy will automatically apply it to the next Invoice due.

There are two places you can find a Customer's Invoice: the Invoices page, or the Customer's Billing page. If a Customer wants to pay on their own, they can also do so from the Customer Portal.

Find an Invoice via the Invoices Page

Head to the Invoices page in the left menu, then follow these steps to locate the Invoice.

Step 1 – Choose the Location

Select the correct Location in the top-right corner.

Step 2 - Choose the Dates

Select the date range you want to search.

Step 3 - Select an Invoice Status

Choose Current Invoices, Paid Invoices, or Future Invoices.

Alternative: Collect Payment via Post Transaction

If you'd rather start from the Customer's account instead of a specific Invoice — for example, to pay the full account balance, several Invoices at once, or a custom amount — use the Post Transaction button instead. You'll find it as the plus icon beside Invoices in the left menu, or as Post Credits inside an Invoice.

Step 1 - Choose Collect Payment

After clicking Post Transaction, select Collect Payment.

Step 2 - Search for an Account

The Customer's name will autopopulate if you're already on their account. Otherwise, search for the Account using the plus icon beside Invoices.

Step 3 - Choose What to Pay

Pick one of three options: Account Balance, Specific Invoices, or Custom Amount. If you choose Specific Invoices, select one or more from the list shown.

Step 4 - Set Up and Post the Payment

Choose the payer and payment method, add a public or private comment if needed, and print a receipt if you'd like one. Click Post Payment to finish. Every payment can be reviewed afterward on the Account Holder's Billing page under Transaction History. See this support article for how to read the Transaction History.

Troubleshooting: No Invoices Showing?

If you don't see any Invoices on the Billing page, the charges were likely entered as transactions instead of Invoices. To fix this: delete the transactions/charges, go to the correct Program/Class and select Add Current Invoice, enter the charge items and amount, then click Create. You'll be taken to the Invoice Details page, where you can post the payment as described above.
