Allow Collums to prepare your appointment deposit payments

Written by Dr Askari

If you have services that require deposits, Collums can remind you how much to ask for. Read how to turn this on here.

When using this feature, Collums can auto generate the deposit invoice with the correct amount, ready for you to take payment.

  • Go to Admin>Settings>Calendar.

  • Select "Remind if deposit required on booking" (this must be selected to use the auto generate deposit invoice).

  • Select "Auto generate deposit invoice" and Save.

Auto generate deposit invoices

  • When you select the service, if a deposit is required, you will see a message with the following information:

    • Total deposit required

    • Amount client has on account

  • Click "Take deposit" and the POS will open in a new tab. An invoice will be waiting containing the value of the invoice required.
