Is it possible to do an invoice for a payment in advance?

Hi All,

Our company receives a deposit to book a trip 3 to 6 months before delivering the service. We would like to send the customer an invoice for them to pay the advance payment to book their trip. This invoice should impact a Liability account called “Advanced Payments” for example, however, when we create an invoice in Manager.io the only accounts we can apply are Income or Expenses.

Is there a way to do an invoice for a payment in advance?

PS: I have read all the guides about this subject, the normal flow and the one using the special accounts. However, none of them contemplate the possibility of doing an invoice.

Thanks in advance!

You have not tried this, because it works perfectly


Make sure that you think this through completely -

Re-read the guides Record customer deposits and advances | Manager
and Avoid automatic credit allocations with special accounts | Manager

Thank you @Joe91, I was making a silly oversight… you are correct, it works! Please delete or close this thread since it really adds not value. I’m sorry for the mistake and thanks again.
