How do I charge a customer?

There are several ways to charge a customer:

Mark a job as done

When a job is marked as done, getSoapy automatically:

  • deducts the job cost from the customer's balance
  • adds any cash payment to the customer's balance
  • generates an invoice for the job and adds it to the customer's account (Manage > Customers > Customer name > Finances)
  • charges the customer if they have added an automatic payment method
  • sends an SMS and/or email message (if enabled) asking them to make payment via the customer portal or payment widget
  • adds a point to any loyalty cards associated with this job

Select the customer from Manage > Customers. Select the Finances tab, click the menu icon to the right-hand side of the invoice, and select Edit invoice.)
