Advance Invoices
Advance invoices let you collect deposits or staged payments against an open tab — the advance collection — and then finalize it into a regular fiscal invoice when the full amount has been settled.
Opening an Advance Collection
An advance collection is a running tab that groups one or more advance payments together before the final invoice is issued.
From the sales screen, tap Advance (or navigate to Invoice History → Advance Collections)
Select New Advance Collection
Assign a customer (required — the collection must be linked to a name and TIN for the final invoice)
Add a description or reference if needed
Confirm to open the collection
The collection appears in the Open Collections list with status Open.
Adding Advance Sales and Refunds
Once a collection is open, you can record multiple advance payments against it over time.
To add an advance sale:
Open the collection from Open Collections
Tap Add Advance Sale
Enter the amount and select the payment method
Confirm — the payment is fiscalized as an Advance invoice and recorded against the collection
To refund an advance:
Open the collection
Tap Refund Advance next to the advance entry you want to reverse
Confirm the refund amount and payment method
Confirm — a linked advance refund invoice is created
Each advance sale and refund is fiscalized individually and appears in the Invoice History.
Note: Each advance payment is fiscalized at the time it is collected. The final invoice does not re-fiscalize the advance amounts — it records the settlement.
Finalizing a Collection
When all advance payments have been collected and the goods or services are being delivered, finalize the collection to issue the closing fiscal invoice.
Open the collection from Open Collections
Review the total advances collected and the balance due
Tap Finalize
Add any remaining line items or adjust the total if needed
Record any remaining payment
Confirm to fiscalize the final invoice
After finalization:
The advance collection status changes to Closed
A final Normal fiscal invoice is issued and references the collection
The collection moves from Open Collections to the regular invoice history
Tip: You can finalize a collection with a zero balance if all amounts were collected as advances.
Viewing Open Collections
Navigate to Invoice History → Advance Collections (or tap Advance from the sales screen)
The Open Collections list shows all active tabs with the customer, creation date, total advanced, and balance remaining
Tap a collection to view its advance entries or to finalize it
Note: A collection must be finalized before the shift can be closed.
