====== Payments against an invoice ======

How a payment against an invoice is recorded depends on the payment method and on whether the company keeps its accounts in Brix.

===== Cash, card and cheque =====

If the company has the [[brix:en:solutions:cash_register]] solution enabled, selecting the //**{[[brix:en:o_nacinima_placanja|Method of Payment]]}**// field on the **//[[brix:en:invoices:basic]]//** tab shows the //Payment// frame. Cash, card and cheque payments go into the till records in the //**[ [[brix:en:till_payments|Till Payments]] ]**// form.

<note>
When an invoice is settled with several different payment methods, //Other// is selected. For such invoices all individual payments are entered directly in the till form, each time linking them to the same invoice.
</note>

===== Paypal/PaymentGW =====

  * **Companies that do not keep their accounts in Brix** (no chart of accounts assigned, e.g. flat-rate sole traders)\\ When the invoice is approved, Brix automatically enters a bank transfer pay-in. The pay-in is shown in the //**[ [[brix:en:till_statements|Bank Payments]] ]**// form.
  * **Companies that keep their accounts in Brix**\\ No pay-in is created. The invoice remains open and no receivable is opened against the card company. The invoice is closed by posting the [[brix:en:bank_statements|bank statement]] when the funds reach the company's account, or by loading the card company's specification file into a journal entry of type //SKK// or the supplier's specification into a journal entry of type [[brix:en:journal_entries:pd|PD]] in the //**[ [[brix:en:journal_entries|Journal Entries]] ]**// form.

===== Bank transfer, cash on delivery and representation =====

  * //Bank Transfer// and //Cash on Delivery//\\ No pay-in is created. Companies that keep their accounts in Brix post these payments from the bank statement; companies without accounting enter them in the //**[ [[brix:en:till_statements|Bank Payments]] ]**// form.
  * //Representation//\\ Not treated as a payment but as an expense. Such invoices are not normally issued by companies outside the VAT system.
