You can mark an invoice as paid in just a few steps. Here’s how:

If the document hasn’t been published to your accounting software yet:

  1. Go to the Bookkeeping – Inbox section in Apron.

  2. Click on the document you want to update.

  3. Scroll down to the ‘Payment’ section.

  4. Toggle on the ‘Already paid’ option.

  5. Select the payment method and date.

Once that’s done and the document is published to your accounting software, it’ll show up as paid in Xero or QuickBooks. It also won’t appear in the Ready to pay section in Apron anymore.

If the document has already been published:

  • You won’t be able to edit payment details in Apron.

  • Instead, go to your Xero or QuickBooks account and update the payment info there.

  • Once it’s marked as paid in your accounting software, it’ll automatically disappear from the Ready to pay section in Apron.

If you're using Capture without a linked Xero or QuickBooks account:

  • You can manually remove the document from the Ready to pay section.

  • Just click the three dots next to the invoice and select ‘Delete permanently’.
