When managing invoices, you will have 2 options for entering payments -
Charging a payment - If you have a payment portal set up on your account, then you can elect to "Charge a Payment", which allows you to take a client's credit card information and process the payment through your payment portal.
Recording a payment - To help you better manage your invoices, we also offer the option to record payments that were taken in office or through another non-TimeTap payment method.
The Manual Invoice Payment Methods list is the list of payment methods that will display as options for you to select while recording a payment on an invoice. We have a default list of payment methods on all accounts, but you can add to or remove from this list to make it better represent your business.
