The two lists
Open Finances › Overview in the menu. At the top, choose a list:
- Financial records: every record of your workspace. Sales invoices, credit notes, incomes and purchase invoices, drafts included.
- Recorded payments: every payment recorded on these records.
Financial records
Each line shows:
- Description: the number and category of the record, and the contact’s name. A paperclip means the record has attachments. On a sales invoice or a credit note, the eye button opens a preview.
- Date.
- Amount: + for an income, − for an expense, with an icon for the payment method.
- Contact.
- Status.
The newest records come first. To change a record, click its number.
To find a record:
- Click Search and type part of its number, its description or its internal note. The contact’s name is not searched: use the Contacts filter.
- Click Show filters to filter by Reporting period, Contacts, Category, Payment method or Type (income or expense).
What you can do with a record
Click the actions button (⋮) at the end of the line:
- Edit: opens the record’s form. A sales invoice opens the invoice form, an income the income form, and so on.
- Record payment: when something is still due. See Record a payment on a purchase invoice.
- Copy: the copy shows in the list.
- Delete: the record goes to the Trash, where you can restore it. See How the trash works. A sales invoice with a payment can’t be deleted.
To delete several records at once, tick them and choose Delete at the top.
Recorded payments
Each line shows:
- Date: the day of the payment.
- Amount: + for money received, − for money paid.
- Payment method.
- Related record: the record that was paid. Click it to open the record in a new tab.
Click Show filters to filter by Type, Payment method or Currency. This list has no search.
Click the actions button (⋮) of a payment:
- Edit: change a payment that was recorded by hand.
- Delete: remove the payment. The record is due again.
Add a record
Click Add new and choose:
- Add income: see Add an income that is not a sales invoice.
- Add purchase invoice: see Add a purchase invoice.
- Create invoice: see Create a sales invoice.
- Import: incomes or expenses from a CSV file. See Add an income that is not a sales invoice.
Common questions
Can I download the list?
Not from the overview. Use Export in Sales invoices or Purchase invoices. The file follows your filters.
I deleted a payment by mistake. Can I get it back?
No. A deleted payment doesn’t go to the Trash. Record the payment again.
Why can't I change or delete some payments?
Payments made online and the amounts of credit notes are recorded by Skileo. You can’t change them, and you can’t delete them here.
Why is there no actions button on a line?
You may only see the finances: changing them needs a permission. See Who can see and change finances and invoices. The invoices of your Skileo subscription have no actions button either.
