Desko Invoice
Payments & Status

Stay on top of what is owed and what is paid.

Statuses

  • draft: not sent; can be edited freely.
  • sent: delivered but unpaid.
  • partially_paid: some payment recorded; balance remains.
  • paid: full amount received.
  • overdue: due date passed with unpaid balance.
  • cancelled: closed and excluded from payment collection.

Recording payments

  1. Open an invoice detail page and choose Add Payment.
  2. Enter amount, date, method, and reference/notes.
  3. Save to update balance; statuses move automatically (sent ? partially_paid ? paid).
  4. Edit or delete a payment if you made a mistake; status recalculates after changes.

Due dates and reminders

  • Due date controls when an invoice becomes overdue if unpaid.
  • Update the due date to reset the overdue timer when renegotiated.

Tips

  • Keep payment methods consistent (bank transfer, cash, card) to simplify reconciliation.
  • If an invoice should not accept payments, set status to cancelled.
