# How do I record partial payment against an invoice?

Recording partial payments against an invoice can be done in two ways: When you manually record payments for your invoices, and when customers pay for their invoices through an online payment gateway.

When you manually record payment for your invoices:

*   Click on the **Record Payment** button present on the top of your chosen invoice.
*   Enter the amount for which you wish to record against the invoice, and click on the **Record Payment** button. This will change the status of the invoice to **Partially Paid.**
*   When you revisit the invoice and record the balance payment, the status of the invoice will get changed to **Paid.**

Similarly when customers pay for their invoices through an online payment gateway

*   Make sure **Allow customer to make partial payments for this invoice** option is selected for that particular invoice on the invoice creation page. Only then it’s possible to receive partial payments for that invoice via online.
*   Your customer can then click on the **Pay Now** button to pay. This will change the status of the invoice to **Partially Paid.**
*   Paying the balance amount will change the status of the invoice to **Paid.**
