On Account Payments are available in the Preferred edition of Envision Cloud. You can upgrade your account on the Account Subscription page.

The On Account feature allows for clients to have a balance on an account that they can make payments on, or keep a credit to use towards purchases. This feature may be disabled in the Company Settings.
