Here is how you can balance an overpaid project and apply those funds toward a future project for a client.

If a client has paid too much for one project but has another on the horizon, you can apply the excess funds to their future project as an account credit.

Follow the steps below to get started:

  1. Record an offline refund in the overpaid project

  2. Record an offline payment in the new project

To help stay organized, you can add notes to both the offline refund and the offline payment to indicate where the funds are coming from. The benefit of offline refunds is that they will balance the project in Goodshuffle Pro without returning any money to the client.

If you would rather not issue the refund, you can issue a discount on the overpaid project to balance it. Learn more here.
