Record Payment

Authors list

When a customer makes a payment on an order, invoice, or sample request, a record of that payment can be indicated for the respective order document in the project.

It is important to keep in mind that payments are designated to the specific order type to which they are indicated. This means that if a payment is recorded for a sample request, it will not be displayed for the main order or invoice.

For which order document would you like to indicate payment?

An Order

Click on Orders from project navigation toolbar and then click on the order number.

In the order details area, click on the Payments & Invoices option on the left and then click on the Indicate Payment button.

An Invoice

Click on Invoices from project navigation toolbar and then click on the invoice number.

In the order details area, click on the Payments option on the left and then click on the Indicate Payment button.

A Sample Request

Click on Sample Requests from project navigation toolbar and then click on the sample request number.

In the order details area, click on the Payments & Invoices option on the left and then click on the Indicate Payment button.


I don't see the "Indicate Payment" button. What do I do?

If the "Indicate Button" is not available, there are two possible reasons.

  1. The order has already been paid in full. Once the order has been paid in full, the "Indicate Payment" button will disappear.
  2. The ability to enter payments has been disabled by an administrator within your company.
    • If you are not an administrator, you will need to contact an administrator at your company to enable this option.
    • If you are an administrator, take the following steps:
      • Click on Account from the main toolbar and then click on Settings.

        In the Sales Management options, click on Order Creation Defaults.

        Scroll to the Order Permissions section and use the slider to indicate yes for Order Payments.

In the Indicate Payment window, enter the payment information. The required fields are Currency, Payment Amount, and Payment Method. To record a partial payment, uncheck the Paid in Full box. Additional information such as the Payment Date, Transaction Number, and Notes can also be entered in this window. After entering payment information, click on the Save button.

Watch how to record a payment in action!

All recorded payments will be listed in the same section where the indicate payment was initiated:

  • Orders: Payments & Invoices
  • Invoices: Payments
  • Sample Requests: Paymens & Invoices

Note: Once the order has been paid in full, the "Indicate Payment" button will disappear.


Will entering payment information here process the payment itelf?

While payments can be recorded in ESP+ for record keeping purposes, it is important to keep in mind that to process payments, you will need to employ the services of a payment processing company.

Can I edit or delete a payment record?

Payments can be edited, but not deleted. To edit a payment, click on the three dot icon on the payment listing and then select "Edit"

The Indicate Payment window will open and you can update the payment information.
