Understanding payment statuses

The rule

You never choose these by hand. Each one is calculated from the vehicle's agreed price and everything already paid toward it.

The three statuses

1. 1
   Not received — the money hasn't arrived yet. It's noted so it isn't forgotten, but it doesn't count toward the order and the customer still owes it.
2. 2
   Advance — money has been received, but it doesn't cover the vehicle's full agreed price. The rest is still owed — the bar in the Towards order column shows how much.
3. 3
   Paid in full — the money has been received and the order is fully paid. Nothing is left owing on this vehicle.

A fourth case exists for a payment that isn't linked to any car (a service fee, a refund) — the money is received, but there's no balance to track.

Example

A car priced at 4,500,000 DA:

1. 1
   You record a first payment of 1,000,000 DA received → the status automatically switches to Advance. 3,500,000 DA is still owed.
2. 2
   The customer pays the remaining 3,500,000 DA → the status automatically switches to Paid in full, without you choosing anything.
