How do I charge someone for 20% of the total invoice amount?

Hello, I am a Pet Portrait artist and require a 20% deposit from my customers to secure their commission. I am looking for a way to send  my customers a request for the initial 20% payment of the overall invoice. Then I can request the remaining 80% upon completion of their painting. At the moment I am sending two separate invoices, but it is getting confusing when I have a few on the go. 

 

I did notice the deposit function can be added to the invoice, but this appeared to deduct the deposit amount from the invoice. Rather than charge the customer the deposit amount.

Hello VictoriaGordon, please see our guide to managing upfront deposits in QuickBooks Online - this will guide you on the steps to take to record the deposit and later apply this to the invoice, as well as how to handle cancellations. If you have any queries, get back to us below. 🙂
