# The Receive-Payment object

> A receive-payment records when a payment is received from a customer *not* at the time of sale. It can be used for one or more of these purposes: (1) record a customer's payment against one or more invoices, (2) set a discount (e.g., for early payment), or (3) set a credit (e.g., from returned merchandise). Note: If full payment is received at the time of sale, use a sales receipt instead.
