How do I record a payment?

Mark an invoice as paid, or record part of a payment or a deposit.

Here's how to record a payment on an invoice when your client pays you by cash, check, bank transfer or a payment link, so it's marked paid.

Mark an invoice as paid

  1. Tap Invoices and open the invoice.

  2. Tap Paid, then Mark as paid.

  3. Check the Amount being paid, the Date paid and the Payment method.

  4. Tap the ✓. The invoice is marked paid, and your client is sent a message saying so.
    ​


Record part of a payment

  1. Open the invoice and tap Payment > Partial payment.

  2. Enter the Amount being paid, the date and how they paid.

  3. Tap the ✓. The invoice stays Unpaid, with less left to pay. When the payments add up to the total, it's marked paid.
    ​


Record a deposit

Open the invoice and tap Payment > Deposit payment. The deposit amount is filled in for you. Your client gets a "Deposit paid" message.


If they pay too much

Walkies asks if you'd like to add the extra as a tip. Tap Add with tip to keep it as a tip on the invoice.


Change or remove a payment

  • Payments are listed under Payments on the invoice. Tap one to Change date or Delete it.

  • To reopen a paid invoice, tap Unpaid and choose Mark as unpaid, or Mark as unpaid and delete payments.
    ​


Good to know

  • Walkies Pay invoices are marked paid when your client pays, so you can't record payments on them by hand. To record cash for one, change its payment method first.

  • Your client isn't sent anything for a part payment, only when the invoice is paid in full or a deposit is paid.

  • In the Walkies Journal app, invoices you mark as paid show "This invoice was marked as paid by your pet sitter."
