Creating an Invoice After Proposal Acceptance
-
Step 1: Accessing the Client Profile
Navigate to the Client Profile Management Screen. -
Step 2: Adding a New Invoice
Scroll to the “Invoices” section and select “Add New Invoice.” Choose the "New Start Lesson" from the drop-down menu. This links the invoice to the calendar view for easy navigation. -
Step 3: Verify Invoice Total
Ensure the invoice total matches the Program total from the proposal and that it is not $0.00 to confirm proper connection. -
Step 4: Saving the Invoice
Save the invoice and proceed to the next screen for payment processing.
Taking a Payment
Understanding the Payment Process
Analogy: Think of the invoice as a "basket" that holds payments. Before processing a payment, ensure the "egg" (payment receipt) is placed in the basket.
-
Step 1: Creating a Payment Record
In the invoice window, select the “Payment” tab and then click “Create New Payment.” Choose the payment method (e.g., Credit Card, Visa, Account) for internal recording purposes. -
Step 2: Entering the Payment Amount
Enter the payment amount and click “Add New Payment.” This action simply records the receipt but does not run the payment yet. -
Step 3: Running the Payment
Once a payment receipt is added, go to the Actions Menu and select "Pay Via Vonigo Payments." Complete the payment processing. If a card is on file, it will auto-populate; if not, the card will be saved. -
Step 4: Repeating for Partial Payments
If the payment is partial, repeat the steps for each transaction until the invoice is paid in full.
Reviewing Payment History
-
Step 1: Accessing Payment History
To view past payments, navigate to the Client’s invoice and click the “Payment” tab. Here you can see a history of recorded payments.
Important Reminder:
Recorded payments do not automatically process. Ensure you use the “Pay Via Vonigo Pay” option to actually run the transaction.
