Editing Payments

== Payment Status ==
At the top of a payment, you will see the status of the payment as shown in the image below.
<br>[[File:paymentStatus.jpg]]

<br>'''Distributed''' - The payment was applied to an invoice.
<br>'''Open Balance''' - This is a payment that was entered for a customer that didn’t have an invoice to apply it to.
<br>'''Applied Deposit''' - In SME you can enter a deposit for a customer. When you generate an invoice for the customer, SME will apply the deposit to the invoice and mark the invoice with the Applied Deposit stamp.
<br>'''QB Payment''' - Indicates the payment was entered in QuickBooks and synced to SME. Any QB Payment in SME cannot be edited in SME, only in QuickBooks.


== Unapplied Payments ==
If you enter a payment in SME that isn't applied to an invoice, it will stay in SME and won't sync to QuickBooks until it is applied to an invoice. We only send the payment over to QB when it is applied to an invoice. 

<br>You can enter an unapplied payment in QB and that will come into SME, but you can't apply that payment to an invoice in SME, you would have to apply it to an invoice in QuickBooks.
