# Record outgoing payment

In the "Payment" tab of a credit invoice a payment receipt can be noted.

![](/files/555cb3d56221d2bfd58a66095f3486e188c9ad3b)

A payment receipt includes

* An amount (it may differ from the invoice amount)
* A payment date
* A payment method (e.g. cash, checking account, Paypal)

Once these values are entered the payment status can then be changed from "open" to "paid".

A click on a button of the **Quick entry** on the right fills all these fields for you at once, but you can still make adjustments afterwards.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** The payment status has nothing to do with the document status.
{% endhint %}

A credit invoice that has been marked as "paid" no longer appears in the list of **Creditors** open items.

More about open items can be found here:

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://wiki.dieagenturverwaltung.de/die-agenturverwaltung-en/finanzen-1/gutschriften/zahlungseingaenge-verbuchen.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
