Deposits, refunds & statement

Applies to version 26.99.5

A client's balance is the money they've paid in, less what your published reports have charged.

MovementEffect on balance
DepositAdds funds the client paid in.
RefundReturns money to the client.
CorrectionA manual adjustment either way.

Charges that flow automatically

When you publish a daily report, its labour and expenses become charges on the client's statement — computed live. There are no stored invoices: the statement is always the current truth of what was published.

Per-project balances
Deposits and charges can be tagged to a project, so the client sees how each project draws down their balance, plus a general bucket for untagged deposits.

Reading the balance

  • Positive — the client is in credit (on deposit).
  • Negative — the client owes you.
  • The Client balance report summarises receivables across all clients.

Frequently asked questions

No. Charges are derived live from published reports, so the statement always reflects exactly what is currently published.

A report it came from was unpublished or voided. Because the statement is live, its charges are removed immediately.
