Tracking payments

The payments dashboard

Open Payments for a running record of every transaction. Up top, summary cards show total collected, this month, pending, and the transaction count.

Below, a table lists each payment across six columns:

ColumnWhat it holds
DateWhen the payment landed.
InvoiceThe invoice number it posted against.
CustomerWho paid.
StatusSucceeded, pending, failed, or refunded.
AmountWhat was charged.
FeeThe platform fee, 0.6% on card payments. Payments you record by hand carry no fee.

Each payment carries a status:

  • Succeeded — the money’s in.
  • Pending — in flight, not yet confirmed.
  • Failed — the charge didn’t go through.
  • Refunded — sent back to the customer.

The payments dashboard is admin-only. Managers and workers don’t see the Payments item in the sidebar and are bounced if they navigate to it directly. See Team & roles.

Payment history on the invoice

Every invoice keeps its own list of payments, so you can see how a balance was built up rather than just where it ended. Each entry shows the amount, the date, and how it arrived: Stripe for card payments, or the method you picked when you recorded it by hand.

Payment history is admin-only, like the rest of the money view.

Payment status on the invoice

Every invoice shows its own payment status, kept current as money arrives:

StatusMeaning
UnpaidNothing collected.
PartialA deposit or part payment is in.
PaidSettled in full.

It’s kept current, not just set once. Editing an invoice after it’s paid recalculates this too, so raising the total past what’s been collected drops it back to partial.

Refunds

Refund a storefront order in Stripe and it flows back into ManagePrint on its own: the order is marked refunded, and the invoice behind it drops its collected amount by the refunded amount, back to partial or unpaid.

This automatic path covers storefront orders only. A refund you issue in Stripe against a dashboard invoice payment is not reflected in ManagePrint. Adjust that invoice yourself so your numbers stay honest.

A payment that lands on a combined invoice already paid in full, a duplicate checkout completing after the first one settled it, is never applied. You’ll get a notification to refund it in Stripe yourself. See Combined invoices.

When a payment turns out not to have landed

Card payments settle instantly, but a bank transfer can sit for days before Stripe reports the final outcome, and it occasionally reports one that never clears at all. ManagePrint checks every payment against Stripe once a day, and if one that was already counted as Succeeded turns out not to have arrived, every admin gets a Payment not actually collected notification naming the invoice and the amount, and a link to it.

ManagePrint doesn’t touch the invoice’s balance when this happens. The payment may since have been part-refunded or adjusted by hand, and guessing would risk writing a second wrong number on top of the first. Check the payment in Stripe, then correct the invoice yourself.
