Clearing or adjusting a client’s account balance

  • Categories: Client purchases and transactions

If any of your clients have a negative balance on their account, you can clear the account balance at any time by making a payment. If any of your clients have an incorrect balance on their account, you can adjust their account balance by either crediting or debiting their account. Crediting or debiting an account balance does not require the use of a payment method.

For more information, see Account balance overview.

NoteStaff members can only modify a client’s account balance if the appropriate staff role permissions are set.

NoteStaff members with the appropriate staff permissions can make account payments but the payment revenue will be associated to the client’s home location.

NoteIf the payments of the client you want to credit, debit, or make a payment for are assigned to another client who is linked to the client by a relationship, the linked client’s account will receive the credit, debit, or payment. To credit, debit, or make a payment to the client’s account balance and not the account balance of the client who is paying for them, you must remove the payable relationship between the clients. For more information, see Troubleshooting: Cannot credit, debit, or make a payment to the account balance of a client whose payments are assigned to another client.
