What is the best process to record customer deposits on sales orders? Customers place an order, might ship in say two weeks, they pay a deposit at the time of the order. I have an deposit item pointed to a current liability for the customer deposits. Do I just record a sales receipt for the deposit, then invoice the sales order once it ships, and use that same deposit item to deduct the deposit? Seems like there should be way to tie the deposit to the specific sales order, and not have to remember to deduct the customer's deposit when invoicing.
