Sell now, settle later without losing track of a single balance
Accept partial payments at POS checkout, see every customer's outstanding balance live, and settle it later — cash, card, or credit — all without leaving the till.
Odoo POS assumes every order is paid in full at checkout. When a regular customer can't pay everything today, cashiers have no built-in way to record a partial payment, track what's still owed, or see a customer's running balance before it snowballs — leaving stores to juggle manual workarounds, held orders, or side spreadsheets just to keep selling on trust.
POS Partial Payment lets cashiers accept any amount at checkout, automatically tracks the remainder as an on-account balance per customer, and flags outstanding balances the moment a customer is selected. A dedicated settlement wizard and ledger let staff collect payment and reconcile balances later — no backend detour required.
Everything you need to sell on credit, confidently
Every capability below is implemented in the module.
Live Balance at Checkout
See a customer's outstanding balance directly on the POS payment screen before you select a tender, so nobody is flying blind on what's owed.
Combined Tender Payments
Split a single sale between customer credit (pay later) and cash, card, or bank in one transaction — no separate checkout needed.
Configurable Credit Limits
Set a per-customer POS credit limit with warn or block enforcement, so on-account selling never grows unchecked.
Minimum Down-Payment Policy
Enforce a store-wide minimum percentage due at checkout, keeping partial sales within a safe range.
On-Account Orders View
A dedicated, filterable list distinguishes partial-payment orders from fully-paid sales for fast end-of-day reconciliation.
One-Click Settlement Wizard
Settle a customer's outstanding balance across their oldest due orders from a single backend wizard, with an optional linked accounting payment.
Settlement Ledger
Every settlement is logged in a dedicated on-account settlement ledger, giving accounting a clear audit trail of who paid what and when.
Debtor Flagging on Customer Records
Customers with an outstanding balance are visually flagged on their partner form and in the POS customer list, with smart buttons linking straight to their orders.
Itemized Payment Status
Every partial-payment order clearly shows the amount paid, amount settled, and amount still due — no guesswork for staff or customers.
How it works
Sell & Accept Partial Payment
Ring up the order and take Customer Account (pay later) tender for whatever amount the customer can pay now, combined with any other tender.
Track the Balance
The remaining amount is automatically recorded as an on-account balance against the customer, visible on their record and in the POS.
Flag & Enforce
Configurable credit limits warn or block further on-account sales once a customer's balance crosses the threshold you set.
Settle Later
When the customer returns to pay, use the settlement wizard to apply payment across their oldest due orders and close out the balance.
See it in action
From checkout to settlement — the full on-account workflow.
The On-Account Orders list shows every order with a balance still due, with the amount owed and an orange "On Account" credit status badge, across every store location.
Each POS order records the exact credit amount taken, how much has been settled, and how much remains due — right on the order form.
The customer's POS Credit tab shows their credit limit, enforcement mode, and current outstanding balance, plus smart buttons linking to their POS and on-account orders.
A dedicated On-Account Settlements ledger records every settlement made against a customer's balance for clean, auditable reconciliation.
The Settle On-Account Balance wizard lets staff apply a payment against a customer's outstanding balance in a single step.
Frequently asked
Does this work with Odoo's native Customer Account (pay later) payment method?
Yes. The module builds directly on Odoo POS's built-in Customer Account tender — no separate payment method to configure. It adds tracking, limits, and settlement on top of what POS already supports.
Can a customer pay partly with cash or card and partly on credit in the same sale?
Yes. Combine the Customer Account tender with any other payment method in a single POS transaction — the remainder is automatically tracked as the on-account balance.
What happens when a customer reaches their credit limit?
You choose the enforcement mode per customer: "Warn" shows a warning but allows the sale, while "Block" prevents further on-account sales until the balance is reduced.
How does a customer pay off their balance later?
Use the Settle On-Account Balance wizard from the customer record or the on-account orders list — it applies the payment across their oldest due orders and can generate a linked accounting payment.
