Two owners, one dog, one invoice, and each wants to pay their half. Invoice the booking to one owner and take each half as its own part.

  1. Open the booking from Appointments and scroll to the foot of the Invoice.
  2. Select Split this payment.
  3. Under Amount to pay now, enter the first half. The line below says what is left after it.
  4. Choose the method for this part, such as Card Reader, and select its button.
  5. Select Split this payment again for the rest, with Secure Payment Link or the card on file.

Each part is recorded against the invoice with its method, its date and who took it, and Paid so far keeps the running total. The booking reads Partially paid until the last part settles it. A card part needs at least $0.50; the last part can be any amount.

Check

A cash, bank transfer or Other EFTPOS part entered by mistake comes off with Remove beside it while the booking is unpaid. A card part is refunded with Refund payment. A membership charge and a cancellation fee are always one payment, so they offer no split. Quick sales and package purchases split the same way.
