Get Started 5 - Receive payments

Once your students have been added to your class, you will want to invoice and receive payments...

You now have a class and payment method setup and enrolled students. Let’s send an invoice and receive some money! 😍

1. Click < to the right of Billing 
2. In the expanded menu click Invoices
3. In the top right hand of the screen, clickGenerate Invoices
4. You have three options for generating invoices but ‘Orders’ will only be applicable once you have your shop live so for now click Generate invoices for a season.
   The 3 options are:
   - Generate invoices for a season and all orders
   - Generate invoices for a season
   - Generate invoices for all orders.
5. Select the season you would like to invoice
6. Click Generate invoices
7. The page will return to the invoices page with the generated invoices appearing with a ‘Draft’ Status. Note: When you do this properly it is worth checking your invoices to ensure you are invoicing the right people for the right amounts.
8. Once you are comfortable that all invoices are correct, tick the top left white box to select all invoices on the page (if you have more than 1 page of invoices, an option will appear above the ticked box asking if you would like to select ALL invoice or just the one page - for this you will want to ensure ALL invoices are ticked)
9. Select Group Actions then scroll down and click Approve - approve all invoices
10. Choose what day, month and year you would like your invoices to be due and tick the box if you would like to email invoice(s) to customers
11. Click Approve and when prompted 'Are you sure?', click Approve again. All invoices will now have the status 'awaiting payment' and all customers will receive an email containing their new invoice with the option to select Pay the invoice by card!  🙌
12. When the customer selects to Pay the invoice by card, they can choose one of the following actions:
    - To sign in to their Stripe Link account (if they have one) to use one of their saved cards.
    - To manually enter in their card information and save it for later.
    - To manually enter in their card information without saving it for later.
13. Once the customer has entered all correct information, selected to PAY (and followed any authentication that their bank may create), the payment will then be sent directly to your Stripe account.
14. The customers account will also gain this payment and the attached invoice will be marked from Awaiting Payment to Paid
15. To check recent payments, head to the 'Payments' widget on the main dashboard. This will show all payments made in the last 30 days.
16. To check if a particular customer has made their payment yet:
    - Click < to the right of Customer.
    - In the expanded menu click View All
    - Search and select your customers name
    - Select the Billing tab.
    Here you can see listed any payments made by the customer, what date it was received, how much was received and with what payment method.
