Mark Payments on Dues and Fees
Mark Payments on Dues and Fees
Use this to record a payment you received outside the system (check, cash, or another offline method), void an invoice, or delete an invoice — all from the AR Dashboard's per-invoice Actions menu. This is the general process for marking any dues or fee invoice; if a Household or Member is paying from Wallet balance funds instead, follow the wallet-specific steps in "How can I manage a household wallet, and view its transactions?" or "How can I manage a member wallet and its transactions?" instead of the Payment Type dropdown described below, which does not include a Wallet option.
- Click Financials > AR Dashboard on the vertical Dashboard menu (left side of the screen).
- Find the invoice in the Outstanding Invoices table.
- Use Search Invoices to look up a specific Member/Household name, due name, or invoice number.
- Use the Included Invoices toggles (Not Yet Late, Late, Paid) and the Invoice Type filter (All, Members, Households) to narrow the list — for example, toggle on Paid to find an invoice that's already been marked paid.
- In the Actions column, click the three-dots menu and choose Mark Payment.
- In the UPDATE PAYMENT STATUS window, choose one of the three options:
- Record a manual payment — logs an offline payment against this invoice (selected by default).
- Mark this invoice as VOID — cancels the invoice without recording a payment.
- Delete this invoice — permanently removes the invoice.
- If you chose Record a manual payment, fill in:
- Payment Amount — pre-filled with the amount due; lower it to record a partial payment. Note: some due types don't allow partial payments — a note under the Payment Date field says so when that's the case, and the field won't accept a lower amount.
- Fee Amount — any additional fee collected along with the payment (defaults to $0.00).
- Payment Type — choose Check, ACH, Credit Card, or Other.
- Payment Date — defaults to today; click to change it via the calendar.
- Click Save Status to apply the change, or Cancel to close without making changes. Warning: the window itself confirms that clicking Save Status is final — there's no separate confirmation step and no undo, so double-check the option and amount before saving.
Good to know: this same Actions menu also has Resend Invoice, Invoice Notes, Download Invoice, and Waive Late Fee — use Mark Payment only when you're recording a payment, voiding, or deleting the invoice itself.
