On Account Payments are available in the Ultimate edition of Envision Cloud. You can upgrade your account on the 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.
Charging an Account
Charging to an account will show that the client has a balance that needs to be paid off. To charge to the client's account, follow the steps below:
1. | Open the Sales Register. |
2. | Select the client in the client drop down menu. |
3. | Ring up services or retail that are going to be paid off. |
