If you would like to create a miscellaneous charge, begin by hitting the button for “Add Miscellaneous Charge”. In the “Charge” box, enter in the amount of the charge, and keep in mind that negative amounts can be entered in order to represent a discounted amount for that team.
Next, give a brief description of the charge, and if necessary, you can fill out the full description in the box that follows. Finally, create the miscellaneous charge by clicking “Save Miscellaneous Charge”. Note: You can always go back and make changes to existing miscellaneous charges by hitting “Edit Charge”.
Unpaid Invoices
In the “Unpaid Invoices” section, you can hit “Generate Invoice” and review the main details pertaining to that invoice. At this point, if you would like to create an invoice from the information listed here, click once again on the button for “Generate Invoice”.
Once you hit “Back to Payments Page”, the newly generated invoice will appear among your unpaid invoices, and in a case where there are more than one unpaid invoices, you can click on “Merge Invoices” to create a single invoice made up of all of the unpaid invoices.
By clicking on “Pay Now”, you can view the details related to a selected invoice. This will include the actual invoice amount, were it to be paid offline, as well as the invoice amount with the processing fee, if the invoice were to be paid online.
If the payment for the invoice was covered offline, you can enter in the amount paid, check off the box to confirm that this payment was made offline, and then hit “Record Offline Payment”.
If you would like to make the payment for this team’s invoice by credit card, you can enter in the credit card information near the bottom of the page, and pay the designated amount.
You will then receive confirmation that your payment was made, and when you hit “Back to Payments”, the newly paid invoice will be listed among that team’s “Payments” section.
