Deposits / layaway for trade in items - properly
There doesn't seem to be a proper way to have an item reserved and paid off by customers over a period of time.
Currently it creates an invoice as overdue and payments can be added - but this isn't the proper way to do it as it is reported as a SALE on that date attracting the tax - instead of it creating an invoice on the date of collection when it is fully paid - the actual sale date and tax point.
It should be able to have an item reserved and print off a label with the details to put on the device and a thermal receipt with the details and terms of the plan. It should also be linked to the customer account so the customer can come and pay off what they can, when they can, once fully paid it should be converted to an invoice.
If a customer changes their mind there should be an option to refund a partial amount and convert the deposit fee into a sale.
This is really important for Christmas/savers clubs or payment plans where the customer pays off before taking ownership of the item.
We have to use a book and paper and print manual labels for this. It is a lot of admin and lots of room for error.
