# Advance payment

In ERPAG, for every sales order or purchase order, you can receive the total amount or the part of the amount in advance for services or goods not yet delivered.

{% hint style="info" %}
An advance payment can be registered only for a document that is not invoiced.
{% endhint %}

To register an advance payment for a document that is not yet invoiced, open that document and click on the 'advance payment' button on the right-hand side of the screen and type in the amount and the description if needed.

Once you record the payment the status of the document will change to 'advanced payment'.
