Payments statuses
Payments can have one of the following statuses:
- Waiting for payment - a default status, in which all Payments are created. The Payment is created but yet to be completed.
- Completed — the Payment has been successfully processed (added and approved).
- Expired - Payment has not been completed before a Payment due date.
- Receipt creating — a receipt for Payment is prepared manually by the Manager (see Approving a Payment).
Receipt sent — a receipt was sent to the Customer.
Only Payments, for which the bank transfer or cash Payment methods were selected, can have the Receipt creating and the Receipt sent statuses (see Configuring Payment Methods).
- Cancelled - the Payment has been cancelled, or a Customer has paid using the Account Balance.
