To track finance charges for one of your customers
If you haven't already read the Sales Overview, see Finance charges for more information.
To track finance charges for one of your customers, you can do one of three things:
- When you're entering a payment from a customer in the Receive Payments window, enter a finance charge payment in the Finance Charge field in the Receive Payments window
- Create an entire sale only for the finance charges using the Sales window -- Service layout or Miscellaneous layout -- then use the Receive Payments window to enter payments against the sale
- Add the finance charge amount to the outstanding balance of the open sale, then use the Receive Payments window to enter payments against that open sale. (Use this procedure only if your transactions are changeable. See What are changeable and unchangeable transactions? for more information.)
