Bad Check / Bad ACH / Card Chargeback (Electronic payments only)
Selecting one of these transactions for ACH or Chargeback will give you the ability to select the bad payment and have all balances reverse automatically. For Bad Check, you have the ability to select from a list the bad check (using the customer's transaction history) OR you may enter the check number and have the system auto-fill the rest of the amounts.
Payment Date
You may either type in the date or click 
to bring up a calendar to help you select the correct payment date. You may backdate payments up to 999 days.
Description
You may enter a description, or use the description that automatically comes from the transaction type.
Initials
Initials are required in order to save a sale. If each user has their own login and password, that information will be used in lieu of manual initials entry.
Apply Payment to:
Once you have entered the amount of the payment, you may choose which part(s) of the balance to apply the payment towards.
Two system options can affect this area: one requires the fee balance to be first in line for payment money, while the other requires the contract balance to be paid off before applying money towards the fee balance. Un-checking both options removes all restrictions.
