How to Add a Payment to an Invoice or Booking

Learn how to record payments, apply them to invoices, and update invoice payment statuses in Event Temple.

Payments can be added directly from a Booking or from an Invoice. This allows you to track payments such as cash, credit card, bank transfers, or other payment types.


Adding a Payment from an Invoice

To add a payment directly to an invoice:

  1. Navigate to the Invoices tab from the left-hand menu.

  2. Open the invoice you would like to update by clicking the invoice number.

  3. Scroll down to the Payments section.

  4. Click + New Payment.

  5. Enter the payment details:

    • Amount received

    • Payment date

    • Payment type

    • Any relevant notes

    • Select Is Deposit if applicable

  6. Click Save.

The payment will appear in the Payments section, and the invoice status will automatically update to Partially Paid or Paid.


Adding a Payment from a Booking

To add a payment from a booking:

  1. Open the booking you would like to add a payment to.

  2. Select the Payments tab.

  3. Click + New Payment.

  4. Enter the payment details:

    • Amount received

    • Payment date

    • Payment type

    • Any relevant notes

  5. Click Save.

If you would like the payment to be applied to a specific Invoice or Event, make sure to select it from the appropriate dropdown menu before saving.



Applying a Payment to an Invoice Later

Once the invoice has been created, you can edit the payment and select the appropriate invoice to apply it to.
