Know what each client still owes you

Record what a client agreed to pay. When money arrives, apply it to the charge it pays. CatatKoin shows what is collected and what is still outstanding, for each charge and for each client.

The CatatKoin Client payments list with outstanding amounts for each charge

What it does

One record for each agreement

A client charge holds the agreed amount, the currency, and an optional deadline. Its status shows Unpaid, Partially received, or Fully received.

Payments in parts

A client can pay a deposit now and the rest later. Each payment you apply moves the charge forward, and the outstanding amount goes down.

One payment, several charges

A client can send one transfer for two jobs. You record it once as Income and split it across the charges it pays.

Overdue charges in one list

The Reminders page shows open charges that are overdue, due today, or due in the next 7 days.

How it works

  1. 1

    Open Client payments and click Add charge. Choose the client from your Contacts, then enter the title, the total due, and the deadline.

  2. 2

    If money arrives, open the charge and click Record new receipt. Enter the amount and the account that received it. Then apply it to the client's open charges.

  3. 3

    If you recorded the payment earlier on the Income page, click Use recorded Income to apply it. CatatKoin adds no money a second time.

  4. 4

    If a client stops paying, click Close balance and enter a reason. If the client pays later, click Reopen charge.

  5. 5

    Filter the list by client, progress, deadline, or agreed date. Click Export to download a CSV file.

What it does not do

  • CatatKoin does not create invoices. The External invoice reference field is only a label for a document that you made in another tool.
  • It does not send messages, emails, or reminders to your clients. Reminders stay inside CatatKoin.
  • It does not connect to your bank. You record each payment yourself.
  • A closed balance is not a payment and not a refund. It only means you stopped pursuing the rest.
