There are two ways to make adjustments to the customer's money balance. ### Automatic increase by issuing a credit note * If you [issue a credit note](/docs/billing/invoices/credit-notes) on an invoice with **Paid** status and choose the **Customer balance** in the **Add credit option** property, it will automatically add the credit amount to the customer's money balance, which will be applied to their next invoice. * If you [issue a credit note](/docs/billing/invoices/credit-notes) for an invoice that already has an applied balance, and the total credit amount (credit note amount + previously applied balance) becomes greater than the invoice's total, the difference is automatically added to the customer's **Money balance** to be applied to their next invoice. ### Manual adjustments by administrator Administrators can also manually adjust the customer's balance to add or deduct funds. 1. Navigate to the customer's profile. 2. Next to the **Money balance**, click the **Adjust balance** and select the adjustment type. 3. Enter the **Amount** to be added or deducted. 4. Type a reason in the **Internal note** field. This helps your administrator team to track and recognize this adjustment later. Money balance can be positive or negative. | **Balance** | **Positive** (>0) | **Negative** (\<0) | | :--------------------- | :------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | :------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | Meaning | The customer has a credit with you. | The customer owes you money. | | Use when | | | | Impact on next invoice | Decreases the amount due on their next invoice. | Increases the amount due on their next invoice. | Customers don't receive notifications about adjustments made to their balance. ## How money balance works When the customer's next invoice is issued, the money balance is automatically applied to its total post-tax amount due. It is reflected on the invoice as **Applied balance**. If the money balance is higher than the invoice total, the invoice will be fully covered, and the remaining balance will roll over to cover the subsequent invoices. Applied balances on invoices do not currently sync to [QuickBooks](/docs/integrations/accounting/quickbooks-online) and [Xero](/docs/integrations/accounting/xero). To ensure your records are accurate, please adjust these invoices manually within your QuickBooks or Xero dashboard. ## Track balance adjustments All changes to the customer's money balance are recorded on the **Adjustments** page.

Customers go to the **Membership** page in the member web portal or mobile app. 2. In the personal or company section, open the **Billing** page. 3.
