Mark a recurring invoice as paid early

Mark a recurring invoice as paid early

Hello,

 

We have customers that are set up on recurring invoices that are sent on the 1st of every month. Some customers elect to pay their invoice before the 1st of the month in person. 

 

How can we mark the invoice as paid before it actually goes out? I don't want to have to delete/recreate invoices, but currently there doesn't seem to be a way to simply mark an invoice as paid "early". I know I can wait until the invoice is sent and then mark it paid at that time, but that adds additional overhead and requires us to remember who all paid early.

 

Please help!!

Re: How do I accept payment on a recurring invoice that hasn't been sent yet?

Hey @kidder

 

I reached out to our Invoices Team for an update on this feature. Right now it's not on our product road map. We're keeping this thread open so we can track how many sellers request this feature. It might be added to the road map in the future, but I don't know when that might be. 

 

I know it's not the answer you were hoping for, but that's the status as of 12/05/2018.

This would help me a ton also. We are in apartment management and some of our tenants like to pay several months at once. 

I need this feature so badly!! Please get this into production!!

 

Being able to mark recurring invoices as paid early should be an option.  Under invoices, I check the boxes for those that have paid early, drop down to "Mark as Paid" under bulk actions, confirm, and then get an error message, "Invoice is not in a valid state for payment."  I would think this should be an easy fix.  This needs to get on your road map.  It appears there are plenty of people who would like this option added.

Definitely as I have stated before. 'Many' times.  Also, when someone pays an invoice (in person) and wants to add something else or combine 2 invoices you should be able to add it to that invoice instead of making a separate sale!
