How to configure open invoices and payment receipts

Open-invoice settings control when transactions can remain unpaid and which receipt is produced when money is later applied.

Enable open invoices

  1. Open Settings > Register.
  2. Find Invoice Settings.
  3. Enable Open Invoice.
  4. If applicable, enable the option to create an open invoice when no payment is entered.
  5. Choose whether later payments produce a Payment Receipt or the related Invoice Receipt.
  6. Save the Register settings.

Choose carefully

  • Use open invoices only when the business allows balances to remain due.
  • Train employees on when a transaction should be completed versus left open.
  • Choose the receipt type that gives customers and accounting staff the clearest record of payment.
