Unbound receivables

If the receipt is not linked to a sales invoice, its status will be displayed as “Pending.” In the sales ledger, these receipts are recorded as prepayments.

Receipts can be found by going to Operations -> Receipts.


Data can be searched and sorted based on all visible parameters. More information about using search filters can be found in the guide Using filters in lists“.

Receipt statuses

The “Bound” status (with a green background) indicates that the receipt is fully bounded with one or more invoices.

If the receipt status is “Pending” (with an orange background), it means that the receipt is either partially or fully unbounded with an invoice. The unbounded part of the receipt is recorded as a customer prepayment in the balance sheet.

Bounding a receipt with an invoice

When you click on a receipt, the detailed view opens, displaying the bound invoices to the receipt (if any) and any unbound part.

To bind the receipt to an unpaid invoice, click on the “Actions” button and select “Bind receipt to an invoice.”

The system will display all unpaid or partially paid sales invoices for the client in the list. Select the correct invoice and confirm the selection by clicking the “Bind receipt to an invoice” button.

Invoices linked to the receipt will be shown in the “Bound invoices” section. 

Removing the bound between the invoice and the receipt

There are two options to remove the bound between the invoice and the receipt.

From the receipt, in the “Bound invoices” section, click the “Remove binding”.

On the invoice, in the “Receipts” section, click the “Remove binding”.
